Is there some stanza that could achieve this automatically? No, it does not illustrate a "need" but provides you an opportunity the alter the headers before sending your post. Supposedly *most* people are finished editing the "body" when they exit the editor and viewing that text is finished. Would you prefer that mutt emulate the "other" system that consistently asks you "Do you really want to <what-ever-function-you-indicated>"? I suppose *you* could edit your .muttrc and configure your chosen editor to "ask-yes" or "ask-no" to indicate your indecision. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
