Original description:

Geary silently ignores SMTP connection errors. Nothing is displayed or shown
to the user when a message wasn't sent.

Since this is related to #5281, this seems like it should go on the 0.2
milestone.

  * **Subject** changed from _Alert the user when their SMTP connection has failed_ to _[string] Alert the user when their SMTP connection has failed_

Updated by Adam Dingle about 1 year ago

  * **Subject** changed from _[string] Alert the user when their SMTP connection has failed_ to _Alert the user when their SMTP connection has failed_
  * **Target version** deleted (<strike>_0.2_</strike>)

I think this is really a special case of #5281, which we've deferred to the
next release, so I think we should probably defer this too. Now that we have
an Outbox, at least messages will not be lost if the SMTP connection fails and
the user exits Geary.
