but it makes sense for the Date: header not to be present when composing the email. it hasn't been sent yet. it might get postpone, or it might take a lot of time to write, etc. it makes sense for it to be added when it is sent and not before. perhaps if you put your own Date: header in while composing, mutt would not replace it. cheers, raf
