i'm not a sysadmin, yet from what people are saying in there reports, no.
when is the last time that you used this before this rejection?
are you using postfix, exim, ....? what are you using for your localhost mailing system?
have you updated your localhost mail system lately?
have you changed your gmail passwd lately?
gmail only supports up to 500 relays a day, are these failed attempts counting?
have you looked at these to make sure that things are ok?
