I've connected to gmail via ActionMailer before, using something  
called msmtp. Not very practical at the end of the day... I don't  
recommend it as a long term solution, mainly because GMail has limits  
and they'll hurt you eventually if you're building a proper web  
application, but for personal email it might work.

So: your keyword is msmtp.
