How can I set options so that the "Sending Message" dialogue box does not appear?

If that is not possible, how can I immediately continue with processing my emails without waiting for the popup to disappear? It seems that I can type Cntl+Shft+Enter (instead of Cntl+Enter) to put my outgoing email in the Outbox, but how do I set an option for the Outbox to be emptied every minute or so?

Thanks for the tip, sfhowes.

Default: mailnews.sendInBackground preference set to false and mailnews.show_send_progress to true is the default setting. It shows a popup with progress after Cntl+Enter. At this point Alt+Tab will bring you immediately to the Thunderbird main window.

Progress in footer: mailnews.sendInBackground false, mailnews.show_send_progress false -- no popup, but message stays in foreground (temporarily while being sent) with progress in footer of message. At this point Alt+Tab will bring you immediately to the Thunderbird main window.

To Outbox: With mailnews.sendInBackground preference set to true and mailnews.show_send_progress to false the message is immediately sent to the Outbox, but processed no further, i.e. not sent later.

To Outbox: mailnews.sendInBackground true, mailnews.show_send_progress true -- the message is immediately sent to the Outbox, but processed no further, i.e. not sent later.
