It is giving this error because the username/password for the e-mail account are inherited from the OS environment variables; on your localhost server they aren't set so we don't provide any to GMail, which rejects the connection. On the deployed Heroku app these are set on the command line using the heroku config:set
command... if you accept/reject an event on the actual site it will send the e-mail correctly (I just retested this again). If you really want e-mail to work locally you will need to set the environment variables under "Optional: Set up notification e-mails" in the README to the values I e-mailed you a couple of days ago
The only status you can put an event submission into is "Followed Up". The others give this error:

That URL suggests this is a problem with authentication.
