smtp.gmail.com is a CNAME to gmail-smtp.l.google.com
Sendmail might not like your setting a cname there in the smarthost
Try changing smtp.gmail.com to gmail-smtp.l.google.com or do something
like [smtp.gmail.com] - note the square brackets - instead of just
smtp.gmail.com [dont attempt to resolve that hostname further and follow
things on - just connect to "smtp.gmail.com" and push email out]
