For the last couple of days, I have been unable to send an email from KMail. This has been working fine for months. I'm running OS 11.1. KMail 1.9.10 (Using KDE 3.5.10 "release 21.9" openSUSE). The mail seems to receive OK. Here is the message I receive:
************************************************************* (Big box, named Continue Sending - KMail)
Sending failed.
The attempt to start sending the message content failed. The server responded: "5.5.0 No recipients have been specified."
The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the outbox folder.
The following transport protocol was used: Optonline.net
Do you want me to continue sending the remaining messages?
[Continue Sending] [Abort Sending]
*************************************************************
The above even happens when I try to send a message to myself, to be received on this Windows machine. Obviously the server is the same going both ways.
I suspect that calling the optonline people wouldn't help-- they seem to know nothing about Linux. (I am only a step or two above that point, myself!)
I like KMail. Can I do anything useful to salvage it?

I use kmail as client for gmail with no problem. I looked at the accounts in "settings" and everything looks OK. The "default domain" says "linux-zf2a" whatever that means. There are no options.
I will call the server people and see what they say, but I have little hope there. They've probably never even heard of KMail.
Both this Win machine and the Linux machine are connected to the same server (I expect) thru the same cable connection.
Well, I will try rebooting Linux--I've never had to do that-- and see what happens. I'll do that before I finish this mail. I did, and no joy.

Since your messages to this list are getting here, what setting differences are you using from the messages that you can't send? That would at least narrow the possible problems down. I see you're using Thunderbird under windows for your messages to this list. Is that going through the same server? -- Tom Taylor - retired penguin openSuSE 11.3-M7 x86_64 KDE 4.4.3, FF 3.6.4 claws-mail 3.7.6 linxt-AT-comcast.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
