I am a legal user of the Rebol SDK which has a version of Rebol/C I
tried sending an email via Gmail SMTP with it but didn't work. I may
have done something wrong or maybe Rebol SDK does not have the
functionality or maybe I need to upgrade. I have to check into it

Stunnel is a program that runs separately from Rebol. Download it from
www.stunnel.org and run it by giving the configuration file that I had
noted earlier thus:
stunnel smtpconfig.txt
stunnel is a "two-headed" software One head points towards the Rebol
program and the other head points towards Gmail. Once stunnel has fired
up; the head pointing towards Rebol receives the data from Rebol's
send
function. It then passes the data to the other head which sends
it to the Gmail SMTP server
To put it more simply: Once stunnel is running fine with the correct
configuration; then you don't have to make any changes to your Rebol
program. Simply use the send function to send the email. Read Rebol docs
to learn about the send function
