Yes, but how hard would it be to check if the send was initiated from the menu
or if it was initiated by the check mail at interval option? I guess there'd
have to be a separate slot/signal for each? (I haven't looked at how the check
mail at interval works.) If there was a way to tell the difference, mail should
only be sent on a manual check, not on automatic checks.

Another possibility is to create a "drafts" mail folder and give the user the
option on saving messages in progress to the drafts folder rather than just
putting them in the outbox.
