Lester:

If you were using the full version of Outlook you could use the MAPI option in Adagio.

To use the Direct method normally all you need to do is replicate the account setup used for Outlook.

The Port number is usually 25 (the default setting to get through your firewall.

Not sure what complexities using Google Apps ads to the setup, something you could try asking Google.
