This custom_folder is in the root of your filesystem? Or in your home
directory?

What does
(auth-source-search :max 1 :host "smtp.gmail.com" :user "myusername" :port 587)
return?
What's the value of smtpmail-smtp-service (it should be 587, otherwise
the auth-source lookup done by smtpmail will fail).
