As well, need to enable the gmail to use as smtp server. Please refer this article https://www.gmass.co/blog/gmail-smtp/ . If you provide more detail we can find out the specific issue.

Still time zone issue persists in iris let's see they can solve in future versions.
This is deprecated feature. Once alternative feature available then can add it into the open exchange to use.
