That is not enough. Mails sent from @apache.org addresses must be
relayed through the ASF mail servers; sending them from Google's servers
won't work, you have to configure GMail to use the ASF relays. See here:

https://reference.apache.org/committer/email

The problem with that is that you have to let Google store your ASF
password. That's kind of dicey because that password also controls your
access to Git and a number of other services.

Pesonally I solved that by not using the GMail client at all; I use
Thunderbird, which can use the ASF relays directly, and my password
stays a bit safer, encrypted on my local disk.
