How to send Gmail through Google Apps SMTP server

Google Apps is a service provided by Google that allows clients with custom domains to host their email accounts on Google servers. For example, your email address, username@yourdomain.com, without having a username@gmail.com account hosted on Google. You can read your Google Apps email through a POP-enabled mail client such as Gmail, Thunderbird or Outlook, among others. You can also email from Google's Google Apps account using Google's SMTP delivery service. If you're using Gmail as a POP client, you'll first need to link your Google Apps email address to Gmail.
