Google Apps SMTP access without SSL or TLS.

Lately I’ve been migrating several client installations over to Google Apps. Most things go well but one of the problems I kept running into was SMTP access for devices that don’t speak SSL or TLS. Printers and copiers are the usual suspects.  I’ve gotten around this a couple of different ways but none of them seemed particularly simple or elegant.

At last a better way! Just use the following options and all is right with the world again.

SMTP Server: aspmx.l.google.com
SMTP Port: 25
User: [yourname@yourdomain.com]
Pass: [yourpassword]
