Hi Darel, Returning to this question:
> Q. Why is send not checking ~/.mh_profile to ascertain the > 'Draft-Folder' setting and prefixing it to the message number? The > Draft-Folder should be a default as well. No, it should not. There are seven possible usage patterns (in the discussion below "$(Path)" stands for the value of Path variable from ~/.mh_profile): 1. send (no arguments). In this case the behavior is: 1.a) If Draft-Folder is set: open that folder and use its "cur" message as a draft; ask the user if it's ok. 1.b) If Draft-Folder is not set: use $(Path)/draft ad a draft; ask the user if it's ok. 2. send -draft Use $(Path)/draft without prompting. 3. send FILE Use $(Path)/MSG as a draft, without prompting. 4. send -draftmessage FILE Same as (3). 5. send -draftfolder DIR Use the "cur" message from folder DIR as a draft. 6. send -draftfolder DIR MSG Use MSG from folder DIR. 7. send -draftfolder DIR -draftmessage MSG Same as (6). As you see, Draft-Folder is used only in scenario (1).
