In james_server.log there are some logging on the emails that got
successfully spooled. Logging is about the fact that the emai got sent
by James. Sorry if it was unclear: from K9 I sent a new email to gmail
OK. And I think that when I composed the previous email that caused the
exception, at that time James was not available.
Thanks for your feedback on K9. I am not confortable with it indeed.

Can james deliver mail to the same account sent from another machine - a
desktop/laptop with a known to be correctly configured email client?
Yes, in my desktop, Thunderbird receives email in this account and sends
it as well.
Can the android machine running K9 send mail to a test account at gmail/hotmail
or some such place?
Interesting: I have just done a test sending email to my gmail account
>from K9 (Android), and it has worked. The log in James shows no
exception for this email.
hi Pablo
Don't follow your last paragraph - why would James log an email sent to gmail
from an android device?
Anyway what you reported semi-confirms my suspicions that it's K9 rather than james
to (mostly) blame. I messed around trying to get K9 to play nice with an mail
exchanger running dovecot & exim4 and gave up. Can't remember the details as
this was some time ago, but I think I concluded that K9 was rather over opinionated
about the settings it should use and lacked config options that it really ought to
have.
I'm not familiar with thunderbird, but I imagine that like sylpheed (for
instance) you can configure settings for ports and SSL/TLS? So if you make that
play with your gmail account (as does your K9) that might help you understand
what settings your james server needs to play nicely with K9.
My solution to this problem was to add a small screen interface to my (server
side) webmail frontend :-)
