[Bug 846035] [NEW] Evolution: clicking on a "mailto" link and clicking "Send" leaves the message in the "Outbox" instead of sending it

 

Public bug reported:

When Evolution is the default e-mail program, it will be invoked when
you click on a "mailto" link in a website.  When you compose a message
and click "Send", Evolution just closes and leaves the message in the
"Outbox".  The only way to send the message is to open Evolution, click
on the "Outbox" and then click on "Send / Receive".

I can definitely confirm this is a bug because this was originally
posted on the Ubuntu Brainstorm website and was rejected as it's a bug
in Evolution.
