Emailing from arduino

I have not been able to email using telnet. Below is a copy of my latest effort:
220 mx.google.com ESMTP y54si7719781wec.12
helo
250 mx.google.com at your service
mail from:
250 2.1.0 OK y54si7719781wec.12
rcpt to:
250 2.1.5 OK y54si7719781wec.12
data
354 Go ahead y54si7719781wec.12
from:bfjard@gmail.com
to: bfjard2@gmail.com
subject: test

this is a test

.
250 2.0.0 OK 1314032187 y54si7719781wec.12
quit
221 2.0.0 closing connection y54si7719781wec.12
The text seems to go thru ok but I do not receive the email.
Also; I have not been able to connect using: telnet gmail-smtp-in.1.google.com or any other exchange.
I get in by using: telnet 209.85.227.27 25
Any thoughts?
tnx bj

This is very strange. Usually, you get an error message immediately, if the mail server does not accept your e-mail. Did you check the obvious stuff: wrong email address, spam folder etc.?

I’ve checked everything I know to check.
I created the email addresses for the email project.
tnx bj

And the e-mail address is working with regular e-mail clients?

Did you try another e-mail account and a different provider?

Check your junkmail.

I had the same problem. No error message when I used telnet to send emails but I found none of my messages in my inbox.

When I thought of and checked my junk mail folder, they were all there.
