Original Redmine bug id: 6259

Searchable id: yorba-bug-6259
Original author: Charles Lindsay
Original description:

If you get prompted for your SMTP password when you try to send an email, and
hit cancel on the password prompt, we simply exit Geary. We should probably do
something else, like leave the Geary window up, but "freeze" the outbox or
something.

If you want to verify, to see the prompt you should be able to just delete
your SMTP password from the keyring (and if Geary prompts you at startup, just
enter the IMAP password but leave the SMTP password blank).

I don't think we're going to be able to fix this for 0.3, we'll have to shoot
for 0.4.

If appears this is also true for cancelling the dialog when can't connect via IMAP and only one accounr is registered, see bug #741872.
