Did you know your message hit the list twice as two separate items?

% Hi there,
% 
% I encountered a missing feature (or a bug?).

I think it's more the former.


% 
% When creating a new mail and exiting the editor, mutt fills in the correct Fcc: 
folder according to the fcc-hook entry.

Yep.


% When the To: entry is changed after this, the Fcc: should be updated.

Well, while that might be convenient, I can also see how that would cause
problems.  If you specifically set the fcc and then mutt notices that it
doesn't match the To: header (or you change the To: header and make mutt
want to change the fcc) then you'd be pretty unhappy.  If you don't
actually want the fcc to change and mutt changes it, then you'd also be
unhappy.

I have some various fcc-hooks that I'd hate to have to either work around
or enter by hand in cases such as above.  For instance, I might send
mail to myself and a multi-address alias to get mutt to set the fcc:
to my folder, but I'd of course remove myself from the To: header before
sending since I don't really want the mail sent to me.  I might also start
a message with the fcc: set somehow and then, as an afterthought, add an
additional recipient that matches an fcc-hook that shouldn't really apply.


% 
% Can this be implemented?

Probably :-)  My bet is that it would only be a benevolent feature patch,
though.

% Cu,
