The error message isn't meaningful in this case - I think you need to
set your email address, and it is probably user-mail-address that
needs to be set.

Try setting all of these, and let us know if it fixes your problems:

(setq user-full-name "dlm")
(setq wl-local-domain "gmail.com")
(setq user-mail-address "jamshark70@gmail.com")
(setq wl-from (concat user-full-name " <" user-mail-address ">"))


I don't think this is needed, but it might also help:
(setq wl-user-mail-address-list ("jamshark70@gmail.com"))  

Cheers,
Jonathan
