Texts from my Xfinity Mobile based cell phone to my gmail email addresses fail to arrive.

I can not create a new text or forward an existing text on my Xfinity Mobile based cell phone that will arrive at my gmail email address on my PC.  Below is the bounce-back error message.  My sister, who also has Xfinity Mobile as her carrier, receives the same message when she tries to text to my gmail email address.  However, other family members with carriers such as Verizon, AT&T, etc. are able to send me texts to my gmail email successfully.  And I can successfully send texts to other non-gmail email addresses.  The error message below focuses on gmail authentification, however my gmail is a personal gmail not a Domain controlled account. 

There's an element of this issue that could be a gmail issue, but Xfinity Mobile users likely have experience this issue & I'm interested in how they solved it.  Thanks!

@XfinityKrista​ Thank you for response & idea to investiage.  However, I've try to enter my issue/message, including my full name & service address however I've received a "can't send" red error message about 5 different times.  I've tried shortening the issue/message to a few lines but that didn't send either.  What am I doing wrong?  Thanks
