Bug#963536: geary: Cannot send emails, messages stuck in Outbox

[Matthias Brennwald]

Package: geary
Version: 3.36.2-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

What is happending:
If I try to send a new email message, the message always goes to the Outbox,
but Geary does not send the message. There is no error or warning message. I
cannot move the message out of the Outbox, and there is no way to tell Geary to
try sending it again. The message is stuck in the Outbox, and all I can do is
to delete the message.

What I expected to happen:
- Geary sends the message
- If Geary cannot send a message, show a warning / error message
- Geary should allow moving messages from the Outbox back to Drafts, so that
the message can be edited and sent again
- Geary should allow trying to send a message again
