Since original context is for "reply as personal note". This works but
user need to manually add ">" before original message and modify
headers.
I still prefer do steps like this:
1. type "r" for reply
2. write your note onto reference of original message
3. in compose view, use ":exec write-fcc" to save message in folder you prefer
4. quit compose view (without sending or postpone)

Is there a way to compose a message and send it directly to a

I'm trying to figure out how to effectively reply to a message with
a personal note/annotation (effectively emailing myself), without
recieving a duplicate message or going through the MTA process at all.
I may not understand correctly but would this work.
In the index I can use "e" to edit the received email,
body and headers. In my case it puts me in vim.
After edits and "write/quit" I'm back in index with the
original message deleted (can be undeleted) and the edited
version available to do whatever. You may simply save it
to the file you want (mbox format in my case).
