I don't believe you need to relay through VM. I don't for my non-VM account; I also set up a test GMail account recently in the way I'm describing.

IMO, you should specify all your settings as normal for freeserve, ignoring relay and set the smtp port to 587.

When you said you tried 587 without success, you didn't say which server name settings you were using. Sorry for troubling you with this repeat suggestion if you were using the standard freeserve serever names.
