Welcome to the forum. You dont need to port forward for email alerts...change the smtp port to 465, and put in an address for the receiver. Post a screenshot of your network settings.
 
in dns server2 enter 8.8.8.8 that is googles dns...you have your routers ipaddress in there now...

My setup also requires the use of the routers address for DNS. I personally think your problem is related to GMails's authentication system, it's needs to be correct.
 
Still need the answer to "What is the drop down, next to the SMTP server field have in it?"
