Ability to individually send emails that are in the outbox (and possibly a time interval delay setting)
In the "Composer Preferences", Evolution has a setting to "Send messages through Outbox folder", with these possible values:
- Keep in Outbox (essentially "send out all my mails in a batch when I press F12")
- Send immediately (what's the point of that, really?)
- Send after 5 minutes (I suppose that's just to give the user time to change their mind)
I would like the ability to right-click any email in the outbox and say "Send this message now". That way, I can control the exact moment at which it gets sent, without needing to flush the entire outbox at once (which might get me locked out by the server).
In an ideal world, I would also like to have a 4th option in the settings: "Queue for sending, 1 email per minute maximum" and "Queue for sending, 5 emails per minute maximum" (or something like that), but I realize that might be ugly in terms of UI, so if I at least have a "Send this message now" right-click action for individual emails in the outbox, then that solves at least part of the problem for me (I could probably do some crazy trick using Dogtail to do that action for me at random time intervals).
