The first thing you need to do is file a Linode support ticket and ask them to lift the blocks on ports 25 (smtp), 465 (smtps) and 587 (submission).

The second thing you need to do is adjust your firewall accordingly to prevent email attacks.

The third thing you need to do is make sure Google is going to allow you to do this without paying for it (they've been cracking down on this lately).

The last thing you need to do is test, test, test.
