Here's your problem.  Problems with gmail are not limited to shitting on
your and everyone's you correspond with privacy (incl. giving your mails to
third parties).  It also drops random mails without any notification -- and,
as you just noticed, fails badly with actual clients.  That some clients are
more amenable to breakage doesn't make gmail any more acceptable.
