One  idea: you create a QT that will replace the @ in the recipient to
#.  That  way the SMTP server reports an error if you try to send, and
you  have to manually go to the Outbox, open the mail, (run another QT
to) replace the # to @, and send.

Or you simply include this QT in the template of specific mails...

Now  you  will  laugh: so I wrote that and clicked on Send now, to see
that  confirmation  window to quote the text. I forgot, I did not have
that confirmation window set for this account :))

Hi MAU,

Yes - I did read. For these circumstances, would a "kill
processes" hot-key combination work, or do you need something
"automatic" like a filter? If so, could a "save as draft" command
be put in the reply (or new) template when the specified
conditions appear? If it is only mails to a certain entity, then
this could work. Is that possible?

I've got to worry when you can't come up with a clever filter
solution, MAU, when you are the king of filters.  +:-)

You hit my funny-bone there MAU.  Thank you.

For important mails, I prevent this accidental sending by not
putting an address in the To field until the mail is written and
edited.  A filter category would be helpful.
