Do you mean that when generating a message to be edited (compose), you generate a References header instead of the current In-Reply-To, and when the user quits the editor, the References contents are used to generate the References and In-Reply-To headers? > > Exactly. I didn't look into it yet, but if that worked, I'd be my preferred solution since it wouldn't mean to touch any parsers. pdmef: If you could provide more explanation or even a (possibly incomplete) patch, I'd be interested. So far, I don't understand how your suggested approach does anything other than move the problem around, and possibly creates other problems... -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/3090#comment:13>
