I am creating an app to send (and receive) hardcoded gmail messages from a single button click. I was able to get the android javamail components running by using the example at http://www.androidsnippets.org/snippets/166/. To get the android javax components working I downloaded mail.jar, activation.jar, and additional.jar from http://code.google.com/p/javamail-android/downloads/list and added them to my project as "Referenced Libraries." So now I get "could not connect to smtp host smtp.gmail.com port 465" but I doubt this is an Android problem. I also don't think it is a firewall, proxy, or virus scan issue since it is happening on both the desktop development environment and the target (nexusone). I have also tried port 587 which has worked for some when 465 didn't. Oh well, it could be worse.
