That smells like the normal behavior with a connection. The messages
stays in Outbox, until it is properly sent. After that it goes to Sent
folder.

What are you using for outgoint mail: SMTP server on the (external)
internet or sendmail?

If the (local) SMTP server or sendmail is reachable, that would be
right.

Does the mail gets sent to the recipient?

Never tried that, not at least by accident. When I am in offline mode,
the sent mail stays in Outbox.
