a "pipe to" menu option to pipe an email to an external program,

It is in cvs already. We just need to get 2.3.1 out
of the door.

Yes, this is something that we should implement - and is really
not a difficult matter. At the moment, I usually move the message
to draftbox, edit it there and move it back - but I agree, it is
a cumbersome procedure.

Another problem(s) with that procedure that would be nice to address in the implementation of the new feature is that using the draftbox appears to delete the old message and create a new one, with a new date and such. It would be nice be able to add a note to the original message, leaving the date and other attributes alone. On the other hand, that may be a hint as to a very simple way to implement it. Even with my meager skills I might be able figure out how to get Balsa to carry out the above procedue behind the scenes.

 The most useful of the two would be to be able
to edit messages in the Inbox or other folders
in order to add a note to them, much like you can
do in the Draftbox folder.  For example my customers'
order forms arrive via email. It would be quite
handy to be able to open the message in an edit
window like you can in Draftbox and add a little
note saying "do not process until Friday" or
whatever.



Less generally useful, but maybe quite handy
