You'll need to either login and send over one of:

• POP
• IMAP
• Gmail API

or you can use a domain you control, at the moment you are trying to send as gmail.com, and being ignored because it knows your IP is not allowed to send as gmail.com, because of SPF, which limits spam by setting who can send as which domains

SPF (Wikipedia)
