the Send Later *UI* needs to warn about problems with Owl! #718

Describe the bug

The FAQ currently claims that when you have both Owl and regular SMTP/IMAP accounts set up in Thunderbird, if you try to send via SL it will likely fail because the configured SMTP server won't accept the email address from a different account.

I had two messages queued this morning, when I checked later I discovered that SL had sent emails to my students FROM MY PERSONAL ACCOUNT instead. This is completely unacceptable behaviour!

Requiring an SMTP server is one thing (an option that I don't have with my work email), but silently switching to a different account is inexcusable. A note buried in your 18,000 word FAQ is not good enough.
