@Odhiambo, I wish I could do that. Although, this works well on printers if we input the SPF within the domain. Anyway, this is a government project and they have already invested heavily on the equipment. @Frank and @Amanya, the smtp.gmail.com cannot work because we normally declare the ports. As I said, it is a unique situation. The device uses a modem to remotely report data. I called the google offices to get help and I got transferred 3 times and no solution yet. I simply redirected my mail back to the hosting service. Its interesting what we face as techies and the challenge is how we can circumvent them. Thank you.

Throw away the device.

Skunkers,
I am faced with a unique problem.
I have set up domain which is hosted on google apps. You receive and send emails no issues whatsoever.
I have a device that I am configuring that does not allow one to enter the port numbers for the smtp for google. A search on the internet led me to aspmx.l.google.com that uses port 25. When I use the same setup on outlook - outgoing SMTP as aspmx.l.google.com and the port number as 25, I still receive the mail but not on the device.
Any ideas on how I can get this to work?
Thank you.
Regards
