Revision history [back]

This is an minor annoyance, and I know there's already many more pressing issues regarding the Email app. However:

I tried sending a video to myself from gallery via Google mail. It failed most likely due to the large file size of the attached video. I forgot about this and went happily on with my daily life, but after a week or so I started noting some heavy upstream data usage @ my WiFi. After poking around tcpdumps I found out that Email app was trying to send and/or sync the failed email submission to/via Google servers every so often. The problem was naturally solved by deleting the messages from my Outbox.
