Not exactly a bug, more like a feature request:
When moving from office to home, I need to change my smtp server. I
sometime forget to do so, attempt to send an email with the wrong
server (using vm), and then I need to wait for smtpmail to fail (long
time) before I can change the server to the right one and retry. c-g
does not seem to have any effect on emacs while this is going on. It
seems that it
would be useful to be able to interrupt smtpmail while it's trying to
contact a server by C-g?
In GNU Emacs 24.0.90.3 (x86_64-apple-darwin11.1.0, NS apple-appkit-1138.00)
of 2011-10-15 on MacBook-Air.local
Windowing system distributor `Apple', version 10.3.1138
configured using `configure '--with-ns' '--without-x''

I'm unable to reproduce this -- I can `C-g' smtpmail when it's talking
to the server.

thanks for responding. I see this problem when I try to use google's
smtp server, when behind a firewall that does not allow me to access
it, for example. emacs still tries hard to connect, this takes a
while, and during this time c-g doesn't have an effect. I don't know
how to reproduce this without this situation, but perhaps this
additional information helps? thanks again...

I see... hm... I just tried setting smtpmail to point to an external
SMTP server on port 25. That port is blocked by my ISP, too, so
smtpmail.el hangs when trying to talk to that port.
But `C-g' works for me when this happens. Could this be an OS
X-specific bug?

perhaps... anything I could do to look into this?

Try running Emacs under gdb and get a C backtrace when Emacs hangs.
