Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Account Configuration, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8b) Gecko/20050211

When sending Messages with Attachment above 1,5 MB (tested with this size) a
"Send Message Error" (Connection to SMTP Server failed .. try again) occured. 

Despite of this Error Message the Mail is still send ? 
Sending the same Attachment and with the same Settings (Account, SMTP Server..)
with Tbird Nightly gets no Error Message.







Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Mozilla Mail
2.Send a message with attachment and Size over 1,5 MB
 

Actual Results:  
Send Message Error: Sending of message Failed.
The Message could not be send because of connecting to SMTP Server <servername>
failed.....

Tested this on a W2k and XP Maschine..same results..

Expected Results:  
Sending of great Mails should be possible (without error Message) or when this
Error Message occoured the Mail should not be send in the Background :-).
Because when you follow the Instructions on the Error Message (try again..) the
receipent will get the Mail twice or more times.
