Just hit f while the message is selected in the pager. An alternative to forwarding is "bouncing" using "B" rather than "f". When bouncing, the message body and the subject line are unchanged. You have no opportunity to add comments. I use it mostly for email that should have been addressed to both my wife and myself but only came to me. I bounce it to my wife and she has a clean copy as if she were addressed in the original "To:" or "Cc:" lists. -- Jon H.

Re: Postponing and forwarding
Yes, you're all right. I should've read the manual. I owe you an apology. And thanks for your still help.

Especially note the "Postponing mail" section... http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/#postponing-mail ... the $recall variable ... http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/#recall ... and the function that is available from the Index menu and the Pager menu: http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/#index-map i http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/#pager-map > Also, how can I *forward* messages to other users? Again, please read the manual. The function is available from the attachment menu, the index menu, and the pager menu. N.B. If you want to forward attachments too (or multiple parts of a multi-part message), you need to enter the attachment menu and select the parts/attachments that you wish to forward. Good luck, Sam

(It does here, but that might depend on some changed setting?) -- Nuno Silva

Postponing and forwarding
When composing an email, I decided to postpone instead of immediately send. It got saved in Drafts folder, but when deciding to send it, I opened the draft, but there's no "send" option; just the usual respond, new email, and the other options when opening any other message. Then how am I supposed to "send" drafts, without having to, say, use the "respond" option again? Also, how can I *forward* messages to other users? Thanks again.
