Yeah, I did and it works as expected, but I would like to learn what
is preventing me from using the smtp service of gmail.

Since you've said that (a) it works from other machines when connecting
to gmail and (b) works from this machine when not connecting to gmail,
the most like answer is your organizational firewall.

If it's the firewall the solution is obvious -- talk to the admins and
find out how you request and get a waiver. Not knowing your code, it's
possible you have either a protocol problem or a missing assembly, but
I'd go with firewall as my first choice.
