In home, I'm using smtpmail.el which is similar to smtp.el of
FLIM.  I live in Japan and my mail server is in US, but I've
never felt it is slow. ;-)

Anyway, I have an idea for it.  I will make something like a new
user option in smtp.el instead of Wanderlust.  It will probably
become the following, for example:

(defcustom stmp-progress-message-format "Sending (%k/%K)..."
  "*Format string used to show progress message while sending mails.
It allows the following special format specifiers:

%b means the number of bytes which has been sent.
%B means the number of the total bytes of a mail.
%k means the number of kilobytes which has been sent.
%K means the number of the total kilobytes of a mail.
%l means the number of lines which has been sent.
%L means the number of the total lines of a mail.
