Hi,

Attached is a patch to fqa8 that documents sending mail with gmail.
Thanks to Ori_B and kvik for helping me with the issues I had.

+
+Add your gmail password to the factotum:
+.P1
+echo 'key proto=pass server=smtp.gmail.com service=smtp \e
+	user=your.username@gmail.com !password=yourpassword' >/mnt/factotum/ctl
+.P2
+
+Configure upas to use gmail as a gateway for outgoing email:
+.P1
+cat /mail/lib/rewrite.gateway >> /mail/lib/rewrite
+.P2
+
+Modify /mail/lib/remotemail to use your gmail account:
+.P1
+#!/bin/rc
+shift
+sender=your.username@gmail.com
+shift
+addr=tcp!smtp.gmail.com!587
+shift
+fd=`{/bin/upas/aliasmail -f $sender}
+switch($fd){
+case *.*
+	;
+case *
+	fd=gmail.com
+}
+exec /bin/upas/smtp -u your.username@gmail.com -a -h $fd $addr $sender $*
+.P2
+
+Now you can try sending an email:
+.P1
+echo hello | mail -s test your.username@gmail.com
+.P2
+
+This will not work the first time as we also need to add a certificate.
+Look into /sys/log/smtp for the following error:
+.P1
+cert for smtp.gmail.com not recognized:
+	sha256=wnu7Uuzq4MlyJHP90+8f2smoh6x3cj0dG5z02jJlX42
+.P2
+
+Add the certificate to your system:
+.P1
+echo 'x509 sha256=wnu7Uuzq4MlyJHP90+8f2smoh6x3cj0dG5z02jJlX42' \e
+	>> /sys/lib/tls/smtp
+.P2
+
+You should now be able to send emails from 9front!
+
+.B Note:
+This configuration does not work for local email delivery.
