+|Feature overview=Send in Background is intended to remove the interrupt of the user between clicking on send and having a visual sudo-block to be able to continue using and processing email.
+|Feature users and use cases=When a user hits send, we currently display a progress dialog whilst the send is in progress and the file is saved to the sent folder.
+With send in background we would save the email to the local outbox, remove the compose window from the display and send the email.
+This allows the user to continue working with email, whilst still sending the email.

-I'm requesting to consider finishing this feature in TB, for which some basic work is already done, but it is not complete yet: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird/TestPlans/SendInBackground
-It is a great option and would benefit greatly. Thanks
--- From Product Council: Hi, thanks for the suggestion, however we can't move this forward without someone to drive the feature (this doesn't have to be a coder). We also need at least the first two boxes in the definition stage filling out for this to be useful to us and it can go through the feature inbox. Therefore moving back to on hold until we get these resolved.
