well, I've decided that I'm not really happy with the postpone-message
hack and don't really want to use it in other places. But until I come
up with a nice way of dealing with multiple connections to the same
server, I've attached a 3 line patch to get things working. Mutt will
open a new connection to the server to get your attachable messages.
This is against mutt-cvs (unstable).
