282008 - Sunbird does not send Email for Alarm event

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 237148

(Calendar :: Internal Components, defect)

Description

[Dave]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0

When an Event is entered in Sunbird and the Alarm option is set with the Email
Alarm to: dialog given an address, it does not send the Email.  Thunderbird was
also alive and working during this time.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Sunbird
2. Enter an Event, Click the Alarm option, set the timing (say 5 minutes before)
3. Check the Email option and enter a valid Email address

Actual Results:  
It didn't send an Email (even if Thunderbird was running)

Expected Results:  
It seems like it should have sent an Email a the specified time before the
'event' occurred.  The Alarm seems to be working since it throws up the dialog
properly (the Alarm dialog), but it does not send an Email.
