That's debatable. If what you say is true, the server is doing something which the application is not dealing with, and it should. Leaving the dialog up there forever (I once left it for a day, it was clear it was never going to go away on its own) is not the answer. > > I don't see it on most of my mail, where the mail server is my own, and > doesn't > hang.

Given that your dialog eventually goes away on its own, perhaps it's a different problem? I've seen this on my own, local SMTP server. This lives on my local network. My network is never very busy. Of course, this doesn't mean that it's not a timeout of some kind, but it seems unlikely. It's happened to me several times, and there has never been anything going on at the time that made me think it may be a resource issue. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
