normally this dialog will show the sending progress and close it after the message sent but sometimes it will not.

sometimes when i send me email, the "Send messages" dialog wont close after the message sent. the dialog will stuck and it seems like hang but it wont affect any function of the Thunderbird. may be this is just some interface problem in mac

Can you check Tools -> Error console next time this happens ?

I've been seeing this behavior a lot too since I upgraded to SeaMonkey 2.0.7
from SeaMonkey 1.1.18.

I'm not sure my messages are actually sent, but I do sometimes get a "Sending Messages" window onscreen which never goes away. Right now I have one that's been up since yesterday. Often I find a blank composition window behind it, perhaps the corresponding message (which was not blank when I sent it).

Not that my "Sending messages" window is otherwise blank -- there is no content, just a resize control in the lower-right. Sample attached, but I cannot see anything in the Error Console (perhaps there was something, yesterday).

Attachment: Sample of call stack while the window was onscreen.

stack trace would just show we're in the event loop, if the program isn't hung. The progress window is taken down when we think the copy to the sent folder is finished (and we don't copy to the sent folder until after the send itself is finished). We Also take it down when we get an error from either of those processes. It sounds like an error is happening, but we're not realizing it. It would help to know if the send happened, and the copy to the sent folder failed,or what...

Sorry, but I had this issue 4 years ago and have since given up on Thunderbird.
