Thanks for a bug report. This had been changed on purpose, to be able to show users progress on sending of each message in its own window, if I recall correctly. Matthew may tell you more.

It is nice to see, but, an INDICATION OF ITEMS REMAINING in queue and PROGRESS OF ITEM BEING SENT ON THE STATUS BAR WOULD BE BETTER.

I am sure I am not alone, my internet upload speed is not balanced to download, it is 10% up, 90% down.

I may have to send 20 documents (pdf) one at a time, it is a HUGE PAIN to have to keep track of which I launched and watch them go ONE AT A TIME.

Comment 3 Matthew Barnes 2012-02-21 03:55:13 UTC
If you're offline, outgoing messages still get queued in Outbox to be sent when the network comes back.  Anyway, I designed the composer to work this way, so closing this as NOTABUG.
