I believe what Chris was telling you (he'll correct me if I'm wrong on
this) was that once you have started a connection (sending or receiving,
including with Command-K), any files that you create and/or queue from
that point onward will not be sent until you next connection. Like this:
1) Say you have created files A, B, and C and start a connection by
Command-K. It begins.
2) After the connection has begun, you open a draft of an email D which
you had begun earlier and decide it's ready to go, so you click on the
"Queue Message" button. The file D is queued into whatever folder you
have selected (Out Box, or some folder you have created).
3) You also write a short email note E - while humongous emails B and C
(with large attachments) are still being sent - and again click on the
"Queue Message" button to queue email E up.
4) Neither emails D or E will be sent during the connection that is going
(the one sending emails A, B, and C). You will have to - when that
connection is done - start a new connection (Command-K, or write a
message F and THEN click on "Send Now").
Only then will the emails you queued up be sent.
That has been my experience with CE - Chris, Jud, Michelle or someone
with more expertise can add to, or correct me on, this.
