The error "dial tcp 74.125.206.108:587: i/o timeout" suggests that your container can't even make an outbound network connection. Try logging into the container and running "telnet smtp.gmail.com 587" or "nc smtp.gmail.com:587". You should get a banner back like this:
220 smtp.gmail.com ESMTP t26-2002.............1 - gsmtp If you don't, then you have a networking/firewalling issue to investigate on your k8s cluster - it's nothing to do with alertmanager. As for your config, I observe that your 'receivers' section doesn't look like what Alertmanager requires: https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/latest/configuration/#email_config For example, you have "emailConfigs" whereas alertmanager requires "email_configs". Presumably, therefore, you are using some middleware which is munging the config before giving it to alertmanager (I guess this is something provided by "monitoring.coreos.com"?) If you're able to find the alertmanager config *as deployed* by this middleware, e.g. by entering the running container and printing it, then you can post that here - or it may be obvious what the problem is. Note that auth_password is *not* base64 encoded in the alertmanager config file - I don't know if your middleware base64-decodes it as part of deployment.
