Hi,
I've found workaround for bug with SMTP error.
Jolla-email app tries to send messages with sender email address equal name that is defined in account configuration as a "POP/IMAP user name". I have no idea why someone implement this in such way, but accidentally it works correctly in case Gmail - Gmail's "POP/IMAP user name" is the same as email address.
Unfortunately I am not a Gmail customer and in my case it doesn't work at all. I am unable to send emails form Jolla native app.
Solution:
Email account configuration is stored in "/home/nemo/.config/libaccounts-glib/accounts.db". This is sqlite db and can be edited with standard tools like sqlitebrowser. Email address is defined in "Settings" table and key = "emailaddress". I've changed it to my correct email address and it fixes the problem with SMTP.

hmm, i use two accounts, but i cant fix the prob. i download sqlitebrowser, but if i open the account.db than i see nothing.
Than i use SQLite Expert Personal, this show me all things. i klick dobble on "emailadress" and put the info "xxxxx@arcor.de" and by another "emailadress" xxxxxx@strato.de" - no sending + no receiving posible. Than i change both, because i dont know with "emailadress" is the right. But the same problem

A big warning when modify it can lead to "raise condition" when you modifiy the file outside your Jolla may have cached contents internally.

Good point. It is important to know that db is open only by one application.
Let me depict my procedure:
0. Make sure that IMAP configuration works and SMTP is broken = you can get messages but can not send
1. Close jolla-email and settings apps (important!)
2. Make sure that in "/home/nemo/.config/libaccounts-glib" there is only "accounts.db". If there is -shm/-wal file, probably some app is connected to db
3. backup "account.db" :-)
3. open "account.db" in sqlitebrowser
4. determine ID of broken account
5. find row with id = <broken account ID>, key = "emailaddress" in "Settings" table. Value should be <IMAP user name>, e.g. xxx
6. change value to your real email address e.g. xxx@yyy.com
7. save data
8. open jolla-email and try to send message

Update:
Thanks to VDVsx, here is more "safe" method of tuning account configuration: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...1&postcount=11
