    That's what I was thinking. Once you send the message, it's sent.

    That seems to be how Stas wants to treat the final press on the TgM's SEND. But it's the robot that is doing the ultimate final processing for delivery, not TgM per se.

    Even my "send" in email is configured to just stick the messages in the Outbound folder, and not send. I need to press the big Send/Receive button for actually delivery to the servers.

    I've always sent email once sent, at least since I've moved from Juno.
    The only time I have a cue in my outbox is if their is an issue with the
    mail server.

    Otherwise, I'm likely to forget and they'll sit there for days.

    I have had instances when an email would fail to deliver due to a server connection problem and then I realize that "I shouldn't send THAT just yet!" :-) And that has been my opportunity to re-edit it and park it into Drafts, or delete it.

    Exactly. Otherwise, I send the message as soon as written.
