Using may09 commercial build

When in offline state, File|Send Unsent Messages should be disabled (4.x does 
this) as it does nothing.

In 4.x for Mac, if you are offline when you choose `Send Unsent Messages', 
Mozilla just goes online and sends the messages. I think this is preferable to 
disabling the menu item. (But then I'm biased, because I use this feature 
regularly.)
in windows you are usually asked ~do you want to go online?~ ...
mpt and timeless bring up a good point. When the user clicks "Get Msg" and they 
are offline, we prompt them "You are currently offline. Would you like to go 
online and get your new messages?".  

It would be nice to do the same thing for sending messages. "You are currently 
offline. Would you like to go online and send your unsent messages?"

cc'ing bhuvan for review & sspitzer for super review;
This is very similar to 79865. Please try to rework this one too. You can add 
error/alert/confirm messages in .properties file and then use them in .confirm() 
calls.

Also, please post the screenshots.

While offline and going to file menu and selecting
Send Unsent Messages this is what I observed:
  -Send Unsent messages isn't disabled (which is ok)
  -Instead a new window pops up
    * A Send Messages window (with a question mark ballon icon)
      It says "You are currently offline. Would you like
      to go online and send your unsent messages?"
    * 2 buttons appear
      -Go online (emphasis is placed on this button as it
       has dark outline)
       Note: it says "Go online", not sure if the "o" should
             be a capital "O" or small "o". But based on
             screen shot from bug 79865, this is ok.
      -cancel button

Clicking Go online results in going online and/or usent messages
being sent. Obvioulsy if there are no messages to be sent,
nothing happens other than going online. 
Clicking Cancel results in still being offline and no messages
being sent.


Verified on trunk.

We're past the point where this could get a PDT+.  This won't make it onto the
branch.

While offline and there is an unsent message in Unsent folder, go to file menu 
and select "Send Unsent Messages" results:

   * A dialog box pop up with two buttons:
         - Go Online
         - Cancel         
     and says "You are currently offline.  
     Would you like to go onlineand send your unsent messages?"
   * Clicking online results in going onine and sent the unsent message
   * Clicking cancel won't take any action and stay offline

If there is no unsent message in the Unsent folder, the File|Send Unsent 
Messages is disabled.
