Marking as new.
This is similar to bug 61139, maybe there should be some dependency between the
two, but it is not a dup this one means a new dialog not just improving the
current progress bar.

The send-dialog only occurs when sending instantly. In case of "send later" a
dialog is missing as well.

I would appreciate a status-window (like there is one in Outlook-Express), too.
At the moment I get no information about

a) how many mails are in the pop3-mailbox
b) how much space (Kb/MB) is used/available/total in the pop3-mailbox
c) if errors occures with the last download.

I think most of the OE-Switchers would really like to see such a status-window!

No action since Jul-2005, not blocked by another bug.
I expect this is WONTFIX but who knows?
