Can you telnet from that machine to GMail SMTP ? For example:

$ telnet smtp.gmail.com 465
Trying 66.102.1.108...
Connected to gmail-smtp-msa.l.google.com.
Escape character is '^]'.

Depending on your environment, check outbound

firewall rules / iptables / security group ?

All firewall controls are outside of my authority. If the connection settings all look good then I will talk to IT and see if they are able to add an exception.
