Something (likely a firewall) is prohibiting you from directly connecting to the gmail.com MX; I am able to connect to it just fine from here. If you typically send mail via a relayhost, continue doing so, and ask the admins of said relayhost to help troubleshoot your problem with delivery to gmail. This is not a Postfix issue. -- Sahil Tandon <sa...@tandon.net>
