Bug Description

Recently when sending a longer message, I noticed that it would send the message while I was still editing it.

> lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 15.04
Release: 15.04
> apt-cache policy messaging-app
messaging-app:
  Installed: 0.1+15.04.20151112-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.1+15.04.20151112-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 0.1+15.04.20151112-0ubuntu1 0
       1001 http://ppa.launchpad.net/ci-train-ppa-service/stable-snapshot/ubuntu/ vivid/main armhf Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     0.1+15.04.20150413-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ vivid/universe armhf Packages

What I expected to happen:
- Message should only be sent when clicking send (the little paper airplane icon), and not before, no matter how much time I take to enter it, and how much editing and futzing around I do

What happened instead:
- after a while, message was fired off on its own, without it actually being ready

Thank you for your bug reeport. How long did you wait and are you sure it was sent due to the waiting? Can you reproduce the issue?

I didn't actually wait, but rather type and edit, and suddenly during typing it went off.

It happened twice in a row, with 2 different messages (... and the second time, it actually occurred much quicker than the first time around)
