I had this problem with SM1, and expected a solution in SM2.
NO !!!
Sometimes when sending mail, the popup windows entitled "Sending
Messages -<mail-subject>" with
Status: Copy complete
Progress: [showing a never ending moving little green bar]
is visible.
The mail is well sent.
The copy of the mail in the "Sent" box is done.
This pop-up did on end ...
- What could we do with this "bug" ?
I believe that it happens when the SMTP server accepts the mail but
doesn't
return a final status indicating it's done. It usually will complete
if you
leave it for a bit, I'm moderately convinced that it's a server
problem.
I don't see it on most of my mail, where the mail server is my own,
and doesn't
hang. I see it on remote mail (and news) servers, and when it finally
completes
there's a bump in network usage about the right size for a completion
message
and socket teardown.
I have let it run for ten minutes and went on with other messages
receiving and sending replies. Its a bug. I've been using the same ISP
which has the same SMTP Server , update equipment and software over the
years.
Same here... it's been happening on my regular server/ISP since version
1.1.14, through the latest release SM 2.0.4.

Therefore, it's a SM bug ... and no hope for a solution ..... :-(
Nohope, because, it needs "votes" and interesting developers ...
Not the same for New Features ... more fancy, more chances to be
implemented rapidly.
Bugs do get fixed, one bug I reported (in 1.0.6 IIRC) got fixed in 2.0.2, so it
happens. :-(
My impression is that bugs in common code are very hard to get fixed because of
the political or bureaucratic issues. Either that or people say "it's in the
common code" as a reason why something won't get fixed.
