Absent error messages
I store mail in a database. The mails arriving at my smtp server are being
put in the deadletter table with repository_name "error". The error_message
column is "NULL". The logs simply say that the message is being stored in
the deadletter repository. How am I supposed to figure out what's going
wrong if there is no error message?

There are various reasons for why a message might get an error message. An
exception is one of them. If you check the spam repository, for example,
the error message will tell you why the message was considered spam.

I had the notification configured earlier, and the error message was "Could
not deliver message due to an error in the James application". There was no
more elaboration on this in any of the logs. I would assume the
error_message column would hold some sort of error report, like an
Exception.getMessage() entry.

Most likely the messages are being directed to the "error" processor by a
ToProcessor mailet in your config.xml, and you don't have a <notice>
element. For example, the stock configuration has:
<mailet match="HostIsLocal" class="ToProcessor">
<processor>error</processor>
</mailet>
which could be something like:
<mailet match="HostIsLocal" class="ToProcessor">
<processor>error</processor>
<notice>550 - no such user here</notice>
</mailet>
The latter is taken from my own config.xml file.
