Evolution: clicking on a "mailto" link and clicking "Send" leaves the message in the "Outbox" instead of sending it

[turbolad]

When Evolution is the default e-mail program, it will be invoked when you click on a "mailto" link in a website. When you compose a message and click "Send", Evolution just closes and leaves the message in the "Outbox". The only way to send the message is to open Evolution, click on the "Outbox" and then click on "Send / Receive".

I can definitely confirm this is a bug because this was originally posted on the Ubuntu Brainstorm website and was rejected as it's a bug in Evolution.
