hmm... assuming that all hooks work - aren't you defining *two* From headers that way? maybe the first one "wins"? let's see... $ cat muttrc.test set autoedit set edit_headers send-hook . "my_hdr From: me <a@b>" folder-hook +empty "my_hdr From: me <c@d>" folder-hook +empty "my_hdr Subject: test" $ mutt -n -F muttrc.test -f /dev/null sending a mail ('m' and a possible 'n' to say "no" to the prompt "Recall postponed message? ([yes]/no):") now results in "From: me <a@b>" (autoedit let's me skip the prompts for "Subject:" and "To:" - and edit_headers will show me the headers in the editor). as i am using vim i can exit very fast with "ZZ". now, when changing to +empty, the folder-hooks do get triggered (i can tell be the X-Test: showing up) - but there is still "From: me <a@b>", so the send-hook overrules the From: header as set by the folder-hook. qed.
