First, there is no "outbound intent" for sending an SMS, any more than
there is an "outbound intent" for sending an email.
Second, I repeat: there is no single "MESSAGING App". You are probably
thinking of the Messaging application from the Android Open Source
Project. This is not part of the OS. It is an app. It is an app that
can be replaced by device manufacturers and ROM modders. Not to
mention the umpteen "MESSAGING Apps" on the Market. The outbox is a
feature of an app, not the OS, just as the inbox is a feature of an
app, not the OS.

Well, short of installing a modded ROM, you probably can't.
