[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (SEAMMAIL-1) Handle errors from sending mail

[Pete Muir (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/browse/SEAMMAIL-1?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12532344#action_12532344 ] 

Pete Muir commented on SEAMMAIL-1:
----------------------------------

Yes, (2) and (1) will bubble up as an exception which should be handled by Seam's exception handling.

What about the case the error comes from another MTA in the chain. I think typically a user would intercept that error, and ask the system to resend a message. This is definitely a common use case, and something we should make easy. I think if we could persist mail messages somehow, this would go a long way to making this easy.

> Email has two types of errors, those that the MTA will automatically retry for, and those that cause bounces. If you are referring to bounces, how do you process the bounces?
