Ok, here is what I have.  It establishes a connection and talks to the 
server, but I was getting a Bad credentials error.  I have attached the code 
that bridges SSL and SMTP.  You need to load SSL from the Universes browser, 
then file in this code.  Then you can connect with something like:

client := SMTPClient openOnSSLHostNamed: 'smtp.gmail.com' port: 995.
client user: 'myusername at gmail.com'; password: 'mypassword';
    login;
    initiateSession.
client mailFrom: 'admin at mydomain.com';
    recipient: 'targetuser at hotmail.com';
    data: 'Subject: This is a test
From: admin at mydomain.com
To: targetuser at hotmail.com

Hi.
Bye.
Richard'.
client quit.


good luck!
Rob
