Ok, I created the "03/03/07 07:39" email, and then did:
File->"Send Later"
Icedove put the email in "Local Folders".Unsent, because there *is
no* Unsent folder in the "regular" (happens to be an IMAP account).
File->"Send Unsent Messages" successfully sent the message *and* put
the message in the "regular" Sent folder.
My opinion is that this is how Icedove was designed, and they
probably won't change it.
As far as auto-sending email when you return from off-line, *that*
sounds like valid enhancement request (that should go thru Mozilla,
not Debian).
