Hm, I don't see anything unusual there.  It seems that the smtp entries are fine
for the emails for which I got the errors, but there are no fcc entries.  There
are no error messages of any kind.

Problem is, I can't reliably reproduce the error.  I tried to send the same
attachments through the same server to another email address I have, and they
went through without any problems.  I suspect it's a server problem.  But I'm
still curious what the error message might mean.

I'll try toggling next time, thanks for the tip.
