So I got a little farther. I'm no longer getting the error. Changes I made:
originally:
:user_name => "my_user_name"
now:
:user_name => "my_user_name@gmail.com"
i'm getting no error now, but I'm also not getting an email at the address I specified in the 'project.email_notifier.emails' property for my project. I've verified there's not a type in the email address I've specified there.

So, I've tried quite a few things, from using my company's internal SMTP server to using an extra gmail account I have and attempting to use their server. All of it ends up giving me this plugin error:
554 5.7.3 Unable to initialize security subsystem at /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/smtp.rb:680:in `check_response'
Here's my current gmail settings. What am I doing wrong?
ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => 587,
:domain => "gmail.com",
:authentication => :plain,
:user_name => "my_user_name",
:password => "my_password"
}
