You may not have seen the online "MH & nmh" book, Denis. It explains stuff like this in detail. http://www.ics.uci.edu/~mh/book/ (and mirrors, some possibly linked from its out-of-date home page). > "@" will refer to the most recent message that is being replied to. > There is only one of those. I think there can be one "@" link in each directory, can't there, Neil? So if Denis starts composing draft 1 in directory "foo", then does "cd bar", he can compose draft 2 there and the "@" will be linked to the correct message?? By the way, Denis, these "@" links will disappear and will *not* be re-created if you quit composition (with: What now? quit) and start again later (with: comp -use -draftmessage n).
