This sounds like you want to save mutt-users from themselves. I mean, why not have the envelope be settable as one of the headers visible with edit_headers set? > > Is there *any* Mail User Agent that allows to do this > > from within the MUA itself, without having to go into > > Sendmail to do it (even if from the command-line)? > > if there wer then you would not install it. trust me on this! But I'm not sure I understand *why* someone should just "trust you on this"? "Because I say so" ?? What's wrong with being able to set the envelope (*not* as the default) on the fly as an edit-headers setting from within mutt/vim, instead of having to do it via Sendmail on the command-line? And perhaps with a warning not to make it settable unless you know what you're doing? The more I think about it, the more it seems very un-muttlike not to have it available this way.
