Not specifically a Claws problem, but it contributed. No fewer than five
things had to go wrong for this mistake to happen:

1. I tried sending via icedove+enigmail, which is what I use daily. I
encountered the same problem I did last year (mangling of the message).
I cancelled the message and gave up too early because ...

2. I forgot that switching to PGP/Mime fixes the mangling issue (damn,
on re-reading the CFV it clearly says you can and should do that to
avoid issues).

3. I started claws after many years of disuse. Tried the obvious "reply
to sender" and noted it was going to be sent to the wrong address
(secretary, not leader2013).

4. I cancelled that and tried "Reply". Good! Now it says leader2013, but
the font-size was large and the window size small (certainly things I
would've adjusted had I been a regular user of claws) which narrowed the
headers pane to the point where I could only see one address, leader2013.

5. Not only was there only one address visible, but I also failed to
notice that instead of "To:" it said "Cc:" which was a big clue ...

So, a Claws problem? Well, arguably point 3 should be fixed, but I'm not
going to be the one to file the bug, as I'm no longer a regular Claws
user and now that I've remembered point 2, I should no longer have the
issue.

Sorry about that.

Ben
