This should be what it says. The server reports a temporary problem
and refuses to send the message. MailMate could (but doesn't)
automatically try later, but I'm not sure that would be a better
solution. To be clear, MailMate cannot send the message when the
server refuses to do so. Based on the above Gmail is the problem.
What I can't figure out why GMail is rejecting my outbound mail when
inbound is fine-- and I can do whatever I want via their web-based UI,
including send the rejected sent-mail that got stored in the
Drafts folder.
The web-interface most likely does not need to access SMTP like MailMate
does.
Usually IMAP and SMTP are also completely separate systems. This is not
quite true in the case of Gmail, but I consider that a bug on their
part.
And it seems like it must just be me, because if GMail weren't
accepting outbound mail in general, we'd
have heard about it by now.
During the night I now have this report form 3 users. I am going to
assume this is somehow related to MailMate (despite the error message
from the server). I'll move the discussion of this particular subject to
this ticket: http://freron.lighthouseapp.com/projects/58672/tickets/392
Note that you should “watch” the ticket to get notifications by
email (apparently this is not done automatically when users reply to a
lighthouse ticket).
I tried sending with my own Gmail test account without problems. This
indicates that the problem is more limited than just MailMate users.
(Note: It's a Holiday in Denmark today which may affect how quickly I
can address this issue.)
