please check on network level if you can access gmail and check with google what protocols are allowed

Ping is not a network check for ports.

The following ports and protocols can be used:

Warning: Hostname pop.gmail.com resolves to 2 IPs. Using 173.194.70.108.
PORT STATE SERVICE
25/tcp open smtp
465/tcp open smtps
587/tcp open submission
993/tcp open imaps


So you have to use for sending
SMTP via Port 25 (not suggested)
SMTPS via Port 465
SMTPTLS via Port 25 or 587


For fetching only IMAPS can be used.

the imap port is fixed in OTRS. if you choose IMAPS the correct port will be used. you can use pop.gmail.com

If you're doing gmail 2 factor authentication, you will want an application specific password.
