Details

using branch 9/28, osx. not sure if this happens on other platforms or on the trunk. - compose an email message - click send - before send progress status box goes away, click cancel. I get the opportunity a lot because the network here times out a lot to nsmail-2 - send cancels, returns you to unsent mail - click send button again Expected: - mail tries to send again Actual: - nothing happens. you can click the send button 50 times and it doesn't help. The message is now zombied and you basically lose the contents. The only way around it is to copy the contents, close it, and start over.
while this may seem uncritical, it really is. if the SMTP server doesn't respond quickly, users are likely to cancel the send and try again (that's what i did several times this week, only to be bitten by this bug every time).

Using MacOS X build id 2001121304, I cannot reproduce this problem! I tried to cancel the send operation at different point and each time I have been able to send it correctly after.
