Thanks.

Care to suggest a patch?  It works like this:

# mutt development environment
apt-get build-dep mutt
apt-get install devscripts git build-essential
debcheckout mutt
cd mutt

# patch, rev1
git grep -e 'Send'
nano compose.c
nano debian/changelog

# testing
debian/rules build
fakeroot debian/rules binary
dpkg -i ../name of package
mutt; # looks good?

# rev2
nano compose.c
... etc ...

# looks good?
git diff

# save patch and email it
git diff my-excellent-patch
mutt

Hope that helps,
Jonathan

I don't understand, I can edit a message about to being sent by pressing
e; maybe you have different bindings, you can check by pressing ?
right before you send you message and look for the edit-message
command.

 Would you please add some more info on the top of hte screen to edit
 like with E if possible. 

Oh, so is your bug report about just adding more information into the
top bar, or do you think there's some functionality missing?

Cheers,
