 |

Pretty much like the title says.
Kmail receives email fine. Sending appears to work, the letter goes to outbox and then sentbox, but never appears at it's destination. Sending via Mozilla mail or Windows works fine. No problems. Nothing I do seems to fix it or lead to a reason (note: this isn't my computer. Working on it over ssh)
| Code: |
dean@PAVILION dean\ $ kmail --composer

Encryption isn't enabled either. Not sure what is going on. Nothing seems to work. Worked fine before switching over to KDE 3.2.0. Also, note: kmail is not segfaulting.
Any help??
1) Have tried recompiling kmail (kdepim) numerous times. Also kdelibs.
2) Deleting ~/Mail, and kmailrc.
3) Have tried different authenication methods and it gets appropriate errors when password is wrong,....
4) Have check the settings against Mozilla mail and Windows and they both work. Kmail doesn't.
5) Found out he didn't have ~/.kde3.2/share/config/profilerc when running with strace. Copied mine. No help.
Really just want to say use another mailer. But then again, hate it when can't fix something. This seems to be one of those things.
Using:
Qt: 3.3.0
KDE: 3.2.0
KMail: 1.6

| What does the mail server say? Have you run tcpdump to see what kmail is doing when connecting to the mail server? |

Not yet, but I did tell him that he probably needs to run ethereal or tcpdump next. That does seem like the next thing to do doesn't it.

Going to try the tcpdump first. Looked thru the kmail change log and didn't see anything that might help. I never had a problem like this when running 3.2.0, but sometimes everyones mileage differs. So that will be next.

Okay, had him to this with mozilla mail and kmail. To compare the results.
Looks like kmail is resetting the connection rather than quiting when done sending email. So the email is canceled. Now why the heck would it do that and mozilla not? Kdepim, kdelibs and qt have been remerge numerous times trying to solve this.
With this command:
tcpdump -x -X -v -s 0 port 25 and host ipaddress

**Later: Think might be getting somewhere. Looks like in the message contents, that kmail may not be enclosing the reciptient address properly. In the mozilla one it is enclosed (ie <name@emailaddress> )
In kmail it isn't being enclosed (ie name@emailaddress )
Then mozilla gets a 250 ok from isp then quits. Where as kmail after message sent, isp sends something, kmail response then isp sends 250 ok and resets. Need to test this out when get home.
***Later: RCPT.TO test from above. Tested mine with an email address that didn't have in address book. Checked and it send without the bracket and worked. So that may not be it, or maybe my isp is friendlier.
I did notice something else though. His mozilla and my kmail that work. Are both sending message SIZE in the MAIL.FROM . Noticed that his isn't so that is my next to look into. Guess going to have to file a bug report soon.
****Now: At the end of my rope. Filed bug report.
Any email protocol experts out there?
