Sebb commented on NET-580:
--------------------------
Thanks for the patch.
I'm not sure it's safe to change the behaviour like this after so long (it has
been like this since before 2.0)
However it obviously makes sense to document the current behaviour.
And it would perhaps make sense to add a new method to support the new
behaviour, though I'm not sure what failures are possible (apart from syntax
errors in the email address).

> When SMTPClient.sendSimpleMessage() is used to send a message to multiple
> recipients, it ignores a failure to add a recipient as long as there is at
> least one successful recipient. This undocumented behaviour is unusual given
> that the API does not indicate which recipients were successful.
