Awesome, thank you very much for setting this up.
GMail users (including almost every GSOC student) were in fact unable
to set up sending emails from their macports alias, Google disabled
that functionality many years ago.

It would be nice to document this for future users, maybe somewhere under
    https://trac.macports.org/wiki/CommittersGuide or
    https://trac.macports.org/wiki/NewCommittersGuide
or wherever it seems more suitable.

Thanks again,
    Mojca
