I’m also wondering about the from and fail-to values. Are these both replaced by the account that is being used for authenticating to the gmail account?

Hi,
great post!
It seems that the “from” parameter will be replaced by your gmail email address and the “bounce” parameter as well. Is there a way to go around that?

Thanks for the info, I can stop trying to get my local SMTP server to work now. Cheers!

Yeah I was totally stoked when CF8 had SSL support. No more having to jump through hoops to get mail to send from my local dev box when testing.
