When I attempt to send outgoing email, I successfully connect to the server but
cannot continue sending the mail.  The moving green bar continues indefitinitely
and when i cancel I am told to check my account settings.  They are correct. 
However,  I can receive mail.  What is the problem?  I shut down all my Norton
Security and Anti-Virus programs, but still cannot send mail.  I am, however,
able to send mail through Outlook Express.protection 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write email
2. Send email
3.

Actual Results:  
I receive a notice that I have connected to server but nothing happens after that.


Expected Results:  
Sent the email and put a copy in the sent folder.

I have noticed this issue as well except it occurs when I am composing more than
1 email - in other word, the issue occurs when 2 or more compose windows are open.

Same happened here in Linux with TB 1.0.2.
I had 4 compose windows opened and tried to send an email on one of those.
I got no response from smtp server as well.
So I saved my drafts, closed all of them, closed TB and reopened it.
Tried to send the same email once again and still got no response.
I created a new Thunderbird account (on another user) and was able to send an
email through the same SMTP server.
So I came back to TB, tried again without success.
Finally, I changed my smtp server, restarted TB and tried again to send the email.
