I'm going out on a limb here, but have you checked to be sure your
email client is using your cpanel server as it's outgoing server?
Perhaps your email client is using gmail's server for outbound email
without you realizing it?

It's usually recommended that you not obfuscate your domain name as it
prevents anyone from checking your MX records for you. It may also
be helpful to show the full headers of an email message that was
delivered incorrectly (again, without any obfuscation).

I'd also call Hostgator for tech support, they should be able to help
you with this, or at least provide you with the relevant log entries.
