thanks for the quick answer.
I get something like below in the logs.
The mail API call is made from a task queue, if it makes a difference.
I assume the queued task has the same privileges as the request that queued
it and which only works when logged in.
I can send mail using the app creator's gmail address (admin) but not with
another gmail logon.
