Austria has horrible Internet connectivity? I don't buy it...

Connection to what? If you are connecting from your Java program to a
remove SMTP server, I would recommend against that. Instead, connect to
a local SMTP server that has a proper queue. Just install something like
postfix, exim, or even sendmail for that matter. JavaMail/commons-email
is not intended to be a fault-tolerant email queuing mechanism... it's
just for dumping SMTP messages onto a server.

The key is to use it locally. The SMTP server's queue will retry until
the message is sent (or a certain amount of time passes, which is
configurable).

If you are creating a web-based email management interface, I would
strongly encourage you to have a separate email thread (or, better yet,
an entirely separate program running periodically) running to send your
mail messages, rather than sending them ad-hoc during HTTP requests.

This will help you manage your own resources, since a batch-style
emailer program can serialize communications, etc. so that you don't
flood your SMTP server with connections, etc.

So, the Internet connection went down on your laptop? Are you running an
application server on your laptop that you expect others to use? Or is
this just a web-based interface that you are using personally, from your
laptop.

Are you just staging this thing on your laptop, and production will be
on a legitimate server? If so, I'd recommend running a staging server
with a reliable Internet connection, so that you don't have to worry
about your laptop's connection.

If you are looking for a solution that allows you to send emails to many
recipients directly from your laptop when Internet connectivity is...
intermittent, then I'd guess that you were a spammer jumping from access
point to access point attempting to steal Internet access from others. :(

If the SMTP server accepts the message for delivery, that's about all
you can do. If you have a *cough* legitimate "From" address, and there
is a problem, the remote SMTP server (mailer-daemon) should respond to
that email address with an error message (I'm sure you've seen these
kinds of things before).
