Tim Ruppert commented on OFBIZ-3379:
------------------------------------
Read the subject and description of the error - they describe EXACTLY what the
real world problem was and provide a solution for it. Thru the community
process, and as a result of one of your comments, the original fix was improved
to have more flexibility to allow people to configure if they don't want to get
emails addressed to them (if there are other issues). So, as I stated earlier,
the way that OFBiz sends notifications WAS broken for the way many customers
use it - and yes it has now been fixed.
On your other note - just because you've been doing it for a long time doesn't
mean that you do it right - not now and no guarantee about then. But, at least
you're now putting comments related to JIRA tasks in JIRA - instead of in email
- so I guess we can all take that as a bonus and moving in the right direction
together! Just follow the processes and be a part of intelligent communication
in the projects and everyone will continue to be happy with your contributions.

> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: framework
> Affects Versions: Release Branch 9.04, SVN trunk
> Reporter: Pranay Pandey

> 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.
