Please don't tell me that what I see happening is not possible! This
is occurring *repeatedly* when I send mail to several *different* gmail
addresses. I am using Claws account settings that haven't changed since Claws
became independent from Sylpheed (currently V 4.1.0). This is going via Zen
internet, which I have also been with for years.

The *only* trouble I have is sending to gmail. Interestingly, if I go via my
Sourceforge account it gets through.
