Okay, I suppose that's pretty authoritative. :-)

Hmmm.
It *sounds* like what's happening is that you're running the "edit"
function, which recalls the raw message into your editor (with every
header, you can tell easily if there are Received headers, although
if it's a Fcc message then there wouldn't be any), saves any changes
you make and replaces the original in the mailbox with your edited
message. With this, you're not supposed to go to the compose menu
at all after you exit the editor. Could that be it?
In case you wonder, the purpose of that function is so you can manually
make changes to the message in the mailbox. For example, if there is a
header you want to change. It goes without saying that you must "know
what you are doing" with this function.
resend-message and edit used to be the bizarrely the same function.
You could either choose to resend the message, or to write it back to
the folder with a special command. With Mutt 1.2, the functions have
been separated and they both do their jobs much better. Maybe you
have some strange keybindings left over from a pre-1.2 setup?
Hope this helps,
Mikko
PS. Your Mail-Followup-To header is a bit messed up in your emails...
