Your send-hook here has two major things wrong with it: first, you have an extraneous "ccl" at the beginning, and second, you need a space between the "~t addr" part and the "push 'stuff'" part. Otherwise, I tried that minimal muttrc and it worked fine for me. BUT...I will say this: the CC addition did NOT make it into the headers in my editor. That makes sense, of course: by using "push", that command only gets executed after I finish editing the message. So o...@ccl.northwestern.edu only gets added to the CC header after I've finished editing the message and am ready to send it. I never noticed the difference before, because I don't use the $edit_headers setting, but... I can see that being confusing. I don't know of a way to modify the CC header BEFORE the editor gets it. The only thing I can think of to change this behavior would be to use the value of $editor to send the editor commands that would modify your CC header, such as this: send-hook '~t ccl-t...@ccl.northwestern.edu' \ set\ editor="vim +/cc: '+silent! s/cc:/Cc: o...@ccl.northwestern.edu,/' +/^$" ~Kyle - -- I'm sick of following my dreams.

I'm just about out of ideas - that sort of hook works fine for me... Is it possible that elsewhere in your muttrc you may be unhooking the hook? e.g. `unhook *` or `unhook send-hook` ? ~Kyle - -- Never think that war, no matter how necessary, no matter how justified, is not a crime. -- Ernest Hemingway -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Comment: Thank you for using encryption! iEYEARECAAYFAkncIx0ACgkQBkIOoMqOI14ZXQCgtQmBXxHd0HdWWt/g36a+8yq2 Qv0AoIAGEN5z9aS+alznaGiqt8v47Q2w =mWbM -END PGP SIGNATURE-

(did > you leave some extra spaces in there?) Try making them single lines. I made them single line and it still does not work... and it turned out that I was using an older mutt 1.5.13. Now I upgraded to 1.5.18 and there is no error message. But the send-hook still does not work.. I wonder if there are more ways of doing this...? Thank you very much.
