Some of us have developed a habit of automatically Carbon Copying (cc) 
everything to ourselves (setting the 'askcc' and  'metoo' variables --- 
the latter might not be necessary but I can't be sure without studying 
the manual.) Then use the folder mechanisms to save messages in multiple 
files.  Look up the 'folder', 'folders' commands, and the 'folder' variable.
With multiple record files, you have a record of both outgoing messages 
and incoming replies for each person in separate files.  It is a 
little bit bothersome to receive your own mail, but multiple folders
keep me from going insane! :-)

hmmm... I wonder if it is possible to *mail* to a folder?  I'm using 6.3, 
and I know I can't with that version...
