Is that how it is supposed to work?
I've no idea :)
There may be a few reasons why you'd connect directly to the recipients
mailserver though. For one, you might be delivering locally (to people
with mailboxes on your server). You may also be writing an application
that sends email by directly connecting to the recipients mailserver
(like many bulk email apps do) so messages like "mailbox full" can be
caught at that time, rather than being bounced as emails potentially
hours later!
Looking at the docs,
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...exception.aspx
I'd say the above is true. If you connect directly to the mailserver,
and the mailbox is busy/unavailable etc., this exception is thrown
(that's assuming the MS example works ;))
