           Summary: kmail should restart 'sending' of message after changing
                    account settings through which it was sent
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.9.5
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: sending
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: raditzman yahoo com


Version:           1.9.5 (using KDE 3.5.5, Debian Package 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5 (4.0))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.18-3-k7

as. - i use the portuguese version of kmail, so I don't know all the correct terms.

If I have bad settings in my sending account (smtp) and try sending a message, obviously the message stays in "to send", for a long time, until it eventually complains it couldn't be sent, and asks if I want to try and send the next one. 


This is the wrong way to do it, because if I happen to correct the settings to the right one after noticing the message isn't sending properly, then I don't know they are right, until that error message appears and the *next* message is correctly sent.

The solution should be this: Everytime the settings are changed, the e-mails which are trying to be sent but are lagging are sent with the new settings (or not only those that are lagging, but immediatly all of them), this way I can test efficiently my sending account settings without having to wait an eternity for each message failed.

 I hope I make myself understand correctly. Please ask me more if I'm not clear. 

GREAT WORK GUYS with kmail, btw!!!!
