"set edit_headers" and reply to the mail. place the cursor onto the Subject line (anywhere) and type 'S' to substitute the current line. type in the new Subject line. that's not perfect - I know. now place the cursor onto the Subject line but this time onto the first non-space after the colon: Subject: Re: foo bar baz ^ now use 'C' to change the rest of the line. some keystrokes save there as you do not need to enter the "Subject:" again. you can map ",cs" (change subject) thus: map ,cs 1G/^Subject: /e+1<CR>C this is much faster, of course. and you can bind it to, say, F10, too: map <f10> 1G/^Subject: /e+1<CR>C i prefer to preserve a copy of the old subject in the header, though: map <f10> 1G/^Subject: <CR>yypIX-Old-<Esc>-W another method is to substitute the Subject line using "!!" (two exclamation marks) and thereby filtering to through a program, eg "awk". more on this after you've upgrade to mutt-1.4 and set up your From: line to show your name. Sven
