Error: Photo Delivery Failed

Every time I try to email a photo I get this error:

Photo Delivery Failed
A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Operation could not be completed.
(NSStreamSocketSSLErrorDomain error -9829.)

My default e-mail account is GMail imap, and I have no problem sending text-only email messages.

Any thoughts?

Powerbook G4, Mac OS X (10.4.11)

I'm having this issue now on my iPhone.

I'm using Gmail via POP to send email. I can send text messages w/o any problems, however when I send photos I get the following error:

I assume that the fix is to delete my email account on my iphone and then resync or something similar... but before I do this I'm hoping that someone can verify a set of steps to solve this issue.

So I've solved this issue, but I'm not really sure what changed.

The steps below must have caused some setting to be refreshed or something...

1. I enabled email account (hosted on a private server) on my phone. Let's call it "Account B".
2. Checked for new messages in Account B.
3. Went to Photos, sent a photo via email and it was sent using Account B
4. Went back to mail and checked mail with Gmail account.
5. Went to Photos, sent a photo via email... it was sent using Gmail account.
