From what you said earlier, it seems you're using the sendmail.el code to send the message. And that code does (around line 1167): (exit-value (apply 'call-process-region args))) (or (null exit-value) (eq 0 exit-value) (error "Sending...failed with exit value %d" exit-value))) so it should catch a non-0 exit status and signal an error for it. Could you try and investigate, to see whether you're indeed running this code and why it doesn't get an exit-value of 75? Stefan
