It has been my experience that Gmail does not allow you to set the "From" address. It will only use the authenticated user's email. This is one of the reasons we switched to the Sendgrid plugin.

Which specific versions of Ruby & Rails are you using?

When you include the "Real Name" in the From address, ActionMailers 2.3.3 -- 2.3.5 improperly set the Return-Path header on Rubies 1.8.7 -- 1.9.x, causing mail delivery to fail. [Ticket #2340][1]

If this is what's causing your problem, upgrading to Rails 2.3.8 (while playing The Final Countdown) should fix it.
