+1 for using K9 Mail on Android.  It is actually a more advanced version 
of the built in Android Messaging.  They forked the code and immensely 
enhanced it with code slowly moving back into official Android 
Messaging.  K9 Mail supports all of the latest IMAP commands which means 
you get push notifications and very fast mail.

If I had to guess I would say you are using a self signed of cheap SSL 
certificate.  I know you are saying you ave SSL off but it would match 
the problem perfectly as sendmail would never get a valid command.

Last I checked the inbuilt Android Messaging client doesn't have a way 
to manually approve an SSL cert that it can't validate and just silently 
fails.

K9 Mail can do this, it's a free app and is probably at least worth 
trying as a debugging tool so you know if it's a problem with the 
network/phone or the server.
