Ah, interesting. Care to share some details about the platform?

Ok, so here the SMTP provider has accepted the mail, and has promissed
to deliver the e-mail (if the recipient exists). It is out of the hands
of Tinymail now...

...however, after that a RSET is issued, meant to clean up the
area. Could it be that for this particular mailserver it also drops the
already queued message? Just a wild guess. What SMTP server are you
using? [ note that the RSET is not Tiny-specific, Evo has it too ]

Yup; simply disconnecting when QUIT is seen is something that some SMTP
server do, regardless of RFC2821, 3.9. But that should not affect the
message delivery.

Maybe there is a problem on the recipient side; or the your message is
seen a spam, or the recipient does not exist.

The best thing is probably to telnet to the SMTP server and try to
reproduce whatever Tinymail does. And try without the RSET as well.

Good luck,
Dirk.
