=How about ~R!, which would inhibit this message from being recorded in the
="record" folder?

That's a good idea, but an even better idea (IMHO) was a way to partially
inhibit the save.  Elm provides this via an inline control line (it also
provides encryption this way).  That way you could save the part of the mail
that you sent with the 75k long uuencoded program that you might want to see
later without saving all 75k.

Last time I suggested this, Bart and Dan both expressed their displeasure
with the Elm scheme.  Maybe there's a better way, but I have no problem with
mush looking for a line with `[nosave]' on it.
