Problem: SMTP errors for invalid user are not being logged/detected as errors.When sending e-mails to our local SMTP server (smtp.school.edu, for example) that are known to that system (i.e. address@school.edu), ColdFusion is not properly handling the case where the local user does not exist.The SMTP server returns an error stating that the user is unknown, which throws a Java SMTP exception. However, ColdFusion reports the message as successfully sent, and it is not put into the undeliverable folder.Since the message is not sent, I do not receive an undeliverable e-mail message from the server.  Also, since CF9 is setting the message as sent successfully, I have no way of knowing if the message was actually successfully sent.

Method:* Set up ColdFusion to use a given SMTP server for sending mail. (smtp.example.com, for instance)* Send an e-mail message to the domain that the given SMTP server would deliver locally, but to an account that does not exist. (i.e. testing@example.com)* The e-mail will be listed as successfully sent in ColdFusion, however the mail server will reject it and the debug log will note that there was an issue.

Result:NA
