Thanks for your patience. Per your suggestion, I modified my code to include
the proxy URL and port values explicitly.
Post those (and a few other) changes (I've attached the code for your
reference), I get the following error logs:
* About to connect() to proxy web-proxy.cup.hp.com port 8080 (#0)
* Trying 16.216.235.20... * connected
* Connected to xxxxxxxxxx (xx.xxx.xxx.xx) port 8080 (#0)
* Establish HTTP proxy tunnel to smtp.gmail.com:587
* Server auth using Basic with user '[email protected]'

Again, w.r.t the above, kindly note:
1) I am using curl v7.28.1 to verify my test case.
2) I tried including the saved 'gmail server certificate location' in the code
(and passed it to CURLOPT_CAINFO).
3) I am using perfectly valid gmail username/password credentials.
4) I have added the CURLOPT_USE_SSL option (with value CURLUSESSL_ALL), since a
few archived libcurl solutions indicated the inclusion of this option as having
solved the auth issue
(but the issue persists for mine nevertheless).
Kindly let me know if you might still find anything amiss.
Thanks,
Naveen
