Lately I was unable to send emails using the gmail app on both my Android phone and Xoom tablet. They happened at different times but happened after installing a rom or updating to a newer software version. I presume this problem is pretty widespread.
I tried re-syncing as well as deleting my gmail account and re-adding. Nothing worked. Finally I tried going into settings -> manage applications -> gmail. I selected clear data and voila, it worked!
Note: once you clear data any emails in your outbox that were not sent will get deleted. You should copy the text or try saving the email before clearing data.

Copy/Paste from Gmail
Its always bothered me that I could not copy and paste from the Android Gmail application. After a little research I found out that there actually is a way to do this on the Motorola Droid (not really sure about other models). Its quite simple actually...
- Slide open hardware keyboard
- Hold down shirt key (the upward pointing arrow)
- Slide your finger over the text you want to copy. It will automatically copy once your finger is removed.
