I have several other sites and use the same settings for setting up both system events. I use the same user name and password an all the same settings on 9.1 so I know the email address with google is working.

I am getting this error regarding the DNS:

SMTPServer is waiting on DNS server to resolve FQDN [smtp.gmail.com]

When I have had this error before I have just added the DSN in the system settings and it starts working.

Not this site. But the only thing different is that I have a separate router using 192.168.3.1 then going out to the campus separate network.

Could it be that the IPO can not get out to verify the google DNS?

Thanks
 
Is this a Server Edition. or VM pro on pc/server or embedded vm?

If it is SE and or a vm pro PC have you tried to ping SMTP.gmail.com from the root or from command prompt of vm PC. Does it resolve?
I worked on a similar issue. If I used the IP address of SMTP.gmail.com emails worked but not with DNS name.
Ended up being customer firewall issue.
