The -draft option adds this "default" value to the msgs[] array.
That's wrong if mh-drafts is being used.
I found the draft message number in the environment variable $mhdraft.
The Use mechanism is not invoked if mh-drafts is enabled, but send does not
know this since it didn't (yet?) read .mh_profile.
1. I changed send.c, to do:
+ case DRAFTSW:
+ dontask=1;
if a if(!dontask) before the Use.. query.
2. handing /home/mcr/Mail/drafts/42 on the send cmd-line, as the file to
send, does not work. It wants a msg number for mh-draft mode.
My "senddraft" whatnowproc is now:
#!/bin/sh
msgnum=`basename $mhdraft`
send -draft -draftfolder +drafts $msgnum $@
I guess I could drop -draft, if I have +draftfolder, and my patch.
I'm not sure if fixing -draft makes sense.
