I really need some sort of feedback for sending mail. Right now messages
just dissappear, and if the main mail window isn't open there is no way to
see that the message has been sent. What if I send a huge file as an
attachment and the compose window was the last window open? I hit send, and
the window dissappears. I don't see any mozilla windows, but it is working
in the background uploading the file. What if I go to shut down? Overall,
it would be a good idea to give some sort of message sending progress
feedback.
