Currently, qmailtoaster/Thunderbird is setup in the following way.
Firstly, it sends the e-mail and then the message is copied to sent folder.
This is not a problem for a small messages without attachments.
If there is a 5mb attachment, then this is a pain in the neck to wait
for the message to be sent and then wait for the same time for the
message to be copied to sent folder.
Is there any way to combine these functions, i.e. to send the message
and at the same time copy the message to sent folder
so that on the client side there is only one function performed.
Many thanks

Short answer: no.
This is largely a client side function, and has little to do with the
server. Regarding the little that is done by the server, the sending
process is totally separate (goes to different program on a different
port) from the saving a copy function. Bringing them together would be a
huge undertaking.
If you're using TBird with pop, the sent folder resides on the client,
and the server doesn't even come into play. If you're using TBird with
imap and need to speed up the copy to sent folder, you might try using
Dovecot in place of Courier. Dovecot performs generally better than
Courier, but I'm not sure how much improvement (if any) you'd see in
that area.
I'm wondering, why are you waiting for the message to be sent and
copied? Can't you simply proceed to do something else in the meantime?
