In such a situation KMail keeps the undelivered message in the outbox. I don't think you could call that "giving up". The message is not simply lost in cyberspace. How does Kmail keeping the message and trying again later differ from what an mta does ? -- Simon Hepburn. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
