The latest CC6 is supposed to tell you where the test failed.

If you are not running the latest CC6, then my best guess is that GMail is actively refusing to accept your test email because there are permissions that need be made in your GMail account settings pages.

There is a conversation here (a bit old, but still relevant) that discusses what you must do with your GMail account.

This has supposed to have been implemented by now.

But, as the final comment in the first thread mentions, make sure your GMail can be accessed by an external application.

I am using outlook already, so it is setup already. I don't get any errors other than test failed to execute. I tried the other threads and it didnt change.

According to the image, I see that the Sending Method is "PHP mail() Function".

Please switch that to "SMTP with TLS" (if available, "with SSL" if not). TLS is port 587, but because CubeCart's Mailer already knows that, I think you can leave the SMTP Port field blank.

Test.

Tried that, and tried with the port both blank and filled, same failure.
