In response to an earlier rerquest for advice on enabling me to save copies of
outgoing mail, Suresh Ramasubrahamian and Frank Naumann suggested a couple of lines to
be added to .muttrc.
I've incorporated them into my .muttrc but still cannot store sent mail in my
/home/sam/Mail/outbox. (All cases correct)
Below is a copy of the relevant (and some irrelevant) parts of my .muttrc. Can anyone
spot the problem?
Thanks, sam

mailboxes `echo $HOME/Mail/outbox`
set folder=/home/sam/Mail/outbox
set editor="/usr/bin/mcedit"
set smart_wrap=yes
BTW, my smart_wrap does not result in line wrapping, perhaps because the set
configuration to
smart_wrap=yes is a mutt instruction and I am using an external editor.
