Having this would surely be useful to make us look and feel better. I'm not sure how much priority it would be worth, maybe I'd prefer to fix even more basic scenarios (e.g. that after saving (downloading) an attachment to your disk, there's zero hint in the UI how to open the target location with your OS file manager, so unless you already know about Ctrl+J, you'll have to start navigating all the way to that attachment in Explorer whereas TB knows exactly where it is). > Perhaps a good starting point is Bug 749654? Bad message in Outbox blocks delivery of remaining messages until dialog is dismissed. Bug 749654 is an excellent starting point, that nasty thing really needs fixing although it may not be in everybody's workflows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/810769 Title: Sending window distracting and interrupts flow Status in Mozilla Thunderbird: Confirmed Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When sending an email in Thunderbird a small dialog box appears to say the message is being sent and this affects the flow of interacting with your email. In almost every case I move the focus away from that window and go to my INBOX. My recommendation would for the window to not show and to show this information in the status bar (similar to how it works in Evolution).
