            Description

            For sending emails through CiviCRM Mail there is an option called 'Send Immediately' however it is causing confusion as is doesn't actually send immediately but rather queues the mail and sends it out next time the cron is run.

            The two options for improving this that I see are:

            • That the function should either immediately call the send mail function and begin the mail out.
            • The text should be renamed slightly to help to reduce confusion, possibly as something like 'queue for next outgoing mail cron'
