Yes. All the messages are successfully delivered. Thank you for
confirming what I had suspected: the messages are essentially spurious,
although perhaps revealing that some SMTP servers don't close properly:

Very useful reply. Thank you so much. Now I can get back to worrying

I will try to remember to post the link to the repository here if anyone

Thanks again,
