everything looks correct. I also use gmail and I have exactly what you
have and it is working for me. The only difference I see is the order and
I'm not sure if that makes a difference. My order is:
EMAIL_USE_TLS
EMAIL_HOST
EMAIL_PORT
EMAIL_HOST_USER
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD
Also are you using regular gmail or google apps???
