You will need to go to your account settings https://www.google.com/settings/security and you need to enable Access for less secure apps
which will help Google smtp for clients.
Please take a look here too

If it still doesn't work even after enabling less secure apps, then you should log into your security zone on your Google account and see if your device is locked. Google has blocked my server, so I went to https://accounts.google.com/b/0/displayunlockcaptcha and it now allows me to submit. Nothing to do with username or password, but Google is blocking access to the device.
