Comments.Text: Your question is really two different questions:  1) How to setup CiviMail (this based on the screenshot you provided, 2) How do I configure CiviCRM's SMTP interface to integrate with Google mail.  You should split this up into two questions, and provide details as to your CiviCRM version and CMS (and it's version).

Comments.Text: Remote SMTP via Google Apps works, but there are **sending limits** and it's **not the fastest** due to network delays. It may be suitable for smaller sites and local dev environments; if you're sending a lot of mail [this question/answer](https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/4775/how-to-configure-civimail-when-using-google-mail/4779#4779) and [this q/a](https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/377/how-do-i-configure-smtp-with-starttls/621#621) are worth a look.
