Version: 1.6.1 (using KDE 3.2 BRANCH >= 20040204, Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.2 (Mandrake Linux 10.0 3.3.2-6mdk) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.3-4mdk This is Kmail on Mandrake 10, official download release. Short messages get sent fine. Longer messages just stay in the outbox after being delivered 90-99%. However, the (aborted) messages do reach receiver after the cancel button (bottom right corner when message is being delivered) is clicked. The message stays in the outbox, after delivery is aborted. The connection to the MTA is over SSL and requires authentication. Kmail on Mandrake 9.2 delivers all sorts of messages to the same MTA with the same connection settings.
Note that Kmail connects to the MTA over a phone line in this case.
The MTA is qmail. Here is a reply from the qmail mailing list about this problem. ============================================================= Chittaranjan Mandal <Chittaranjan.Mandal@iitkgp.ac.in> wrote: > Does qmail connection die if the link is too slow?

The above report doesn't indicate whether qmail is the receiving SMTP agent, or the sending one. If the latter, show us your qmail-send logs.

can you still reproduce this with the current version of KDE (4.3) ?
No response - closing. If it is still reproducible, please reopen.
