fix #2539 It's always a bit ambiguous which function should do set_err or set last_send_error, I used this rule here: If some code returns Status::RetryLater, then it sets last_send_error, because Status::RetryLater means that the user won't see the error directly on the message (if we returned Status::Failed(Err(_)), then the message would be shown as failed to the user) Also, smtp_send always sets last_send_error because, well, sending just failed or succeeded. Also, remove unused field pending_error.
