It's not clear we're talking about the same bug. The BZ report is for a
more complicated scenario (though the fix may cover both cases). Not
flagging a missing To: field would certainly have been reported before
now, so it looks like it's actually a regression.

 Also didn't exist in Evolution 2.26.3

I've now had a chance to verify this. It appears that the message is
accepted for sending but doesn't go anywhere. It's not in the Outbox,
nor in the Drafts. IOW a user who falls victim to this bug is quite
likely to lose the message he was composing. This seems to me quite
serious, and waiting for a fix in 2.30 means waiting 6 months for those
who don't compile their own Evo, which is most people.

If at all possible, I would urge the devs to consider backporting the
fix to 2.28.

Hi,
or just a part of it. The issue was the Post To header, which seemed
to be filled, even not used in the UI. Then the composer thought there
is some To, and was happy. The mentioned bug really covers slightly
more, but the issue with Post To had been fixed together.

I'm pushing the relevant part to 2.28, which will be part of 2.28.3+
(there was a release of 2.28.2 yesterday, unfortunately).
Bye,
Milan

Yes, I believe it should, I've made that mistake before as well.
