Description
A likely common issue.. you're in the middle of sending a mail having hit the send button, only to realize that you don't actually want to send the mail. The 'Cancel' button suggests you may be able to cancel a mail send in progress, but this doesn't work, currently being mapped to canceling the e-mail draft and returning to the mail list page. So, in this context the Cancel button is misleading.
Ideally, hitting Cancel while a send is in progress would immediately abort the connection to the server, notify the user that the mail has not been sent, while leaving the compose mail page open.
On the subject of sending mail, when the send button has been clicked, an intermediate page that indicates the progress of the send would be better still (with an option to cancel), giving better feedback to the user that the send is in progress. Currently, sending mail provides very little by way of feedback.
