The sendmail tag should raise an exception, if it is unable
to deliver the message to the mail server.

However, this does not mean that the message will reach the
recipients. Well behaving mail servers will return a mail
that is undeliverable, though.

dtml-sendmail does not log the messages, but the mail server
probably does.
