Re: concatenating mail and send-message in a macto

2002-06-14 Thread Eric Smith

I asked this question a long time ago but today, did this
macro index M maileric\nsubject\nsend-message

That works just like I want - *no* need to have to press `y' in the
compose screen to send your mail (which is great for many
situations).

But is there a way to do this _without_ having to specify a
dummy name and subject at the prompts?

thanx

According to Eric Smith on Thu, Nov 22, 2001 at 11:11:24PM +0100:
 Sometimes I like to have the mail sent when I exit my editor -
 often in fact - meaning I skip the compose screen.
 
 So I used to fiddle a lit with the set editor command but that is not 
 the answer, I just tried this:
 
 macro w index mailentersend-message
 
 and this works when you have a pending message as I did
 cause the enter answers the prompt to resume the postponed
 message, then you edit that message and voila it sends
 automatically on closing the editor.
 
 But when you have no pending message (as is normal for me)
 then the send-message ends up as a suggested subject.
 
 Am I being dense?  What is the way to do this?
