you can set the variable "record" to a file/pathname.  You can also
set logfile to a file as well.  This is different than record because it
only logs the -headers- of your outgoing mail without logging the message
text within.

Those how didn't know that are probably saying "gee-- that's neat, but
how do I find a list of all the variables I can set without having to
read the entire manual.  I'd sooner read the dictionary."

Try:
mush> set ?all
this will give you a list of all the variables mush understands and
a breif descripton of what the variable does.  You should read the man
page for the longer/more complicated ones.
