$record needs to be the path to the mailbox where you want your
outgoing mail saved, e.g.
set record="~/nsmail/Sent"
By the way, if you specify $folder before $record, then you can
use "+" or "=" in the path name. The "+" or "=" will expand to
the value of $folder, e.g.
set folder=~/nsmail
set record=+Sent
Good luck.
