Re: [Evolution] SMTP AUTH

[Jeffrey Stedfast <fejj ximian com>]

Nah, the logs aren't really needed - what seems to be happening is that
you are getting disconnected. It seems that danw is at least partially
right afterall. Even though the SMTP transport module allows to be used
over and over again without being disconnected, the code that uses it
only sends 1 message at a time and then destroys the smtp object (or so
that code thinks) yet it is not actually destroyed because somehow some
other section of code has a reference to that object as well, so when we
unref the object in the mail_send_message function, it isn't actually
destroyed.

I'm wondering if this is a 0.10 bug and that it might be fixed in the
latest CVS because I can't find any reason for it to be ref'd by any
other section of code.
