Hey, you have the manual; what more do you need? ;-)


% 
% if i have a send-hook:
% 
% send-hook somelist set pgp_autosign=no
% 
% it changes the value of pgp_autosign from there on out, yes?  it is not

Yep.  Of course, you've already seen that from others.


% a temporary item just for this send afterwhich the global value of
% pgp_autosign returns.  that is why when i asked about send hooks everyone
% gave me two send-hooks instead of one.

More importantly, multiple send-hooks can be applied to a single message,
so mutt goes through them all applying everything that matches.  If you
had

  send-hook . set pgp_autosign=yes
  send-hook aol.com set pgp_autosign=no
  send-hook dad set pgp_autosign=yes

and you sent mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] then pgp_autosign would be yes.

Contrast this to an fcc-hook or a folder-hook, only one of which can be
applied; mutt goes through the list and stops at the first match, so your
default case -- if you even need one -- is at the bottom.
