Mine says as below.

 Confirm before send                                          Not Checked
Send messages in outbox folder:                      Not Checked
Default send method:                                             Send Now
Message property            MIME Complaint (Quoted Printable)
Default domain                 Localhost

I have found on odd occasions that trying to reply to a mailing list, I've had 
a "refused by server", and message will remain in the outbox, until you fix 
it. With that message, as it were, in quarantine, trying to send other 
messages failed also, because of the faulty one in the outbox.

I've had to edit the message in the outbox, removing certain words, phrases 
from the message that I'm replying to. Words like Viagra for example.

Having done that, sending a message that appears to be quarantined, is now 
sent without problems.

Perhaps my ISP is monitoring my sends, and looking for spammy words or 
phrases, and rejecting the send if the post looks a bit dodgy. Saying that, I 
receive allsorts of rubbish that bogofilter sends to the trash, so they are 
not rejecting it being sent to me.

It will be interesting if this post gets to the list, as I've used a word 
above, that may end up with this post staying in my outbox.

Using Kmail 1.6.2 on a very ancient Fedora Core 2.
