That's not a bug. It's a feature, and my opinion is that I like it
silently failing. The Out Tray is usually highlighted/bolded afterward,
and that is indicator enough to tell me there is something there awaiting
my attention. ("Silently failing" is kind of a misnomer, as well, since
whenever my PM fails to send something -- at least for server connection
errors and such -- I get the famous "uh oh" sound.)

I don't have anything waiting at the moment to test, but I'm fairly sure
I right click (control-click) and choose "send" from a pop-up menu. No
need to go to draft mode at all.
