We have found that some of our forum e-mails have not sent, because there was a temporary problem connecting to the e-mail server, but the task for sending the mail completed as though it was a success. This means that some of our users were never getting forum e-mails (and we did not know until the complained since we did not have failed task logs).
Sample of a CRON log entry (with redacted user details):
Sending messages to username (123456)

It seems to me that in a case like this the task should fail, so that it can be retried later.
