Sounds to me like Netscape is queueing your message because there is no connection
established. Have you looked for the message in the Out folder? If there's a "send
all queued" command or a "send on check" setting for Netscape, you could try those
once you dial-up.
It probably doesn't happen with Batch because that's not trying to send the message,
just compose it.
