Adding this to the papercuts, indeed feel free to remove it if you think
it's not suited.

Summarizing, the problem is that as evolution is designed now, if I send
a message using nautilus-send-to (part of the default install), I risk
to power off my machine before the message is sent. This happened to me
in various occasions, and once it also caused me troubles at work,
because my reply to my boss, that I had composed before going to work,
was in the powered-off pc at home and I had to prepare another one.

I think that a proper solution to this bug, in the light of not opening
annoying popups, is what I described in comment

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/84269/comments/7

that is, behave like the print system: when you send a print out it
notifies you, and also upon completion. I repeat that IMHO the
notification should be issued ONLY IF there is no main evolution window
present; otherwise, a notification is not necessary: when closing
evolution the user will receive a warning if the message is unsent.

The solution should be trivial, just add a test in the code for the
presence of the main window (I believe evolution can detect this some
way?) and a couple of notifications.

When invoked from nautilus-sendto, evolution should show the progress dialog 
for sending the message
