Ruth Hoffman commented on OFBIZ-3379: ------------------------------------- Tim, The comment about BCC anonymity is valid. And for that reason I now agree using alternate connections to send BCCs is a good idea. But, let me remind you, that was not the original intent of this change. We were discussing failed email delivery and not BCC anonymity. > Email sending process using one connection for To/CC/BCC causing issues > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-3379 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3379 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Bug > Components: framework > Affects Versions: Release Branch 9.04, SVN trunk > Reporter: Pranay Pandey > Assignee: Tim Ruppert > Fix For: Release Branch 9.04, SVN trunk > > Attachments: OFBIZ-3379.patch > > > Typically BCCs are handled via the sending mail client. That is, when the > client sees a BCC in an email, it will open up two connections to the mail > server, the first for the To/CC fields, the second for BCC fields, this way > the addresses are masked from the headers and there is that layer of > anonymity that BCC is used for. > What appears to be happening is that OFBiz is sending all of the information > in one connection to the mail server and having the mail server sort out the > details. So when sendTo encountering an invalid email, and then terminating > the remaining execution of the outgoing process and no email sent to BCC > address which is usually going to be a valid address from email settings for > the company. > To fix the issue, we need to send this via two connection to mail client. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
