How to send emails through Outbox?

I would like my emails immediately to go to Outbox and auto-send from there.

Thunderbird in my office is doing like that: After I click on Send, I don't have to wait till the email is being sent. It immediately transfers it it Outbox and from there it sends the email automatically within 3-5 seconds.

The advantage is "Compose" window immediately disappears from my face and I dont have to wait till it sends.

This is not the case with the Thunderbird at home. When I click on Send I actually need to wait until it sends the email. The compose window doesn't disappear until it sends and doesn't transfer to Outbox.

I have tried to compare the settings between those 2 Thunderbirds but still couldn't replicate it. Any idea how can I make the emails go to Outbox immediately and auto-send from there?

Your set-up in the office may be configured to send email in background.

Go Tools|Options|Advanced|General→Config Editor and type (or better, copy and paste) mailnews.sendInBackground into the search box at the top. If the item appears, and is set to false, double click it to switch it to true.

If that item doesn't appear you need to add it. Right-click in the big window, and create a new boolean variable, using that name given above and set it to true.

There is a similar entry named mailnews.show_send_progress that you might want to set to false.
