Title:
  Sending window distracting and interrupts flow

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:
  Confirmed
Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When sending an email in Thunderbird a small dialog box appears to say
  the message is being sent and this affects the flow of interacting
  with your email. In almost every case I move the focus away from that
  window and go to my INBOX.

  My recommendation would for the window to not show and to show this
  information in the status bar (similar to how it works in Evolution).
