% Me again! :)

Welcome back!  Returning to the trough? :-)


% 
% Sorry if my previous email appeared as a thread to another message,
% there is a reason though, which is why I have this question.

Funny you should mention that...


% 
% In Mutt, quite often I want to send an email to someone, but I want to
% be able to highlight an email from them, and click "Send it to this
% person, but it isn't a reply" - if that makes sense.

It does, but it's not good behavior with a thread-aware MUA.


% 
% I am just lazy for not wanting to have to alias everyone that I am

Yes, you are :-)


% writing to, but my emails usually start by going into the folder for the
% person that I am writing to and clicking an old email from them, then
% pressing "r" which adds in the in-reply-to line in the header.  I then
% manually "E"dit the email headers and remove the reference to the reply.

If you can get rid of the References: and In-Reply-To: headers, then
you're on your way, but if you leave either then mutt will very cleverly
ferret out where the message belongs -- even if it no longer belongs
there -- and place it for the reader.


% 
% There must be an easier way - anyone? :)

Yes, there is; use your aliases file or an external query to something
like lbdb or abook or ...


% 
% Thanks again

HTH & HAND
