I have ZoneAlarm running, but normally Zone Alarm notifies me if a program
from within is trying to access the internet and let's me block it or let it
go. Is it possible that ZA is blocking not my request to connect to the smtp
server but the server's reply?

- From the command-line on your server, can you telnet to
smtp.gmail.com:465? I'm wondering if you have a firewall that won't
allow you to make that connection.

So, it looks like this isn't a problem specific to Java. I'm guessing
that you are being blocked somewhere. Microsoft Windows versions since
2000 (at least) have had software firewalls built into them that you can
easily configure. You may also have another firewall on your network
between you and google's SMTP server. If that's the case, you'll have to
change the configuration of the firewall(s) to allow communication.
