XMPP is not that clear [0] what happens, if the recipient is offline. I'm not sure, what the popular servers (Google, Facebook, etc) do in practice.
As a proof of concept. It should be easy to implement a "shortcut send" into an email client, which sends a mail directly over XMPP, if sender and recipient are both online with this client.

- dscrd 14y agoI have witnessed somewhat normal network situations (being connected to XMPP server while connecting / disconnecting to a VPN server) that have caused a stable and mature Jabber client (psi) not actually send messages even though it seems that it did successfully send them. For a mature messaging protocol, that smells really really bad for any serious use.
