But if the MTA fail to deliver and it does not queue, it sends a message back to mutt that the delivery has failed. I think mutt must remember that it has already written a Fcc and not to continue to write Fcc's to disk which fill up unneccesary the Disk. I send realy often Messages from some MBytes and some times my ISP's smtp-relays deny for some time the sending of such big messages... So I do not like to store a dozen of 10 MByte Messages on Disk or in my postgresql. Please note, that I am using IMAP, which mean, that I have unneccesary traffic too, because curently mutt writes every time I try to send the message to the SEND-Box on my Imap which will every time 10 MBytes for eyample. Oh yes, the message that a Messages can not be delivered comes AFTER mutt has written Fcc and send the Message. So I need to resend the Whole Message... In my example every time 20 MBytes. > b) > No, if writing to the fcc fails, mutt should not (and does not) send > the mail. If mutt fails to write Fcc then you have much mor problems... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I think, a new mutt option which allow whether Fcc is writen bevore send() or after it is send is neccesary to fit the needs of all mutt $USER > Nicolas Greetings Michelle -- Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 50, rue de Soultz MSM LinuxMichi 0033/3/88452356 67100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com)
