postfix issue...

hey

I know this isn't an OS question, but I'm lost!!

New to configuring Postfix, with a few questions about how to configure Postfix.

I'm running Fedora, with Postfix, from the basic yum install. The
Sendmail process has been stopped.

I can easily send a basic test mail from the cmdline. Ie:

  mail foo@xxxxxxxxx
  subject: blah
  test
  .
  Cc:

works with no issue. However, the email on the gmail end, is in the
Spam folder, which is to be expected.

As I understand the different articles I've seen, Postfix can be
configured to allow me to authenticate emails, to in effect,
relay/send them using the authenticaion of a valid email user/passwd
from a valid gmail account. (or from my own isp user/passwd). This
would then allow the emails to be in the Inbox folder!

I've seen a great deal of online articles, but I'm still confused as
to exactly what's required to make this happen.

I know that the main.cf, as well as the transports/sasl-passwd files
have to be modified. I'm confused as to whether certs are actually
required, or if TSL is/is not required....

So, I'm trying to figure out exactly what config files have to be
modified, as well as what has to be inserted in the config files.

If I could see the confi files from someone who's actually gone
through this process, I could more quickly get my head around what
I've screwed up!

Thanks
