Public bug reported:
Assume I have an email with four recipients, one of them invalid.
Evolution is configured to use SMTP to send email. Authentication is not
required (LAN IP is sufficient on the SMTP server).
Now, during the SMTP dialog (as evidenced from Postfix logs), one of the
recipients gets rejected with a 550 code, the other 3 get accepted with
a 250 code.
BUG: Evolution
- DOES NOT display a pop-up requested displaying the faulty address
- DOES NOT display a hint in the status line displaying the faulty address
- DOES SILENTLY LEAVE the message in the outbox, clogging the entire outbox.
Expected behaviour:
- Evolution should display the server transcript, in particular, the rejected
e-mail address, so that the user has a hint as to the problem, and can do
something about it.
