In article <9108121800.AA05212@wendy-fate.UU.NET> kyle@uunet.UU.NET (Kyle Jones) writes: Unfortunately, MUAs like Berkeley Mail and MTAs like sendmail do different things with dead.letter. UCB Mail just puts the body into dead.letter when you abort a message. sendmail outputs the headers and a UUCP From line along with the body. With the latter format you can use vm-visit-foldwer and visit dead.letter like any other folder, edit and resend any messages you wish. Is there a command to resend a message like this? That is, a command which sets up a mail buffer, inserts the body of the viewed message as the body of the message to be sent, and inserts the headers of the viewed message as the headers of the message to be sent? None of the existing commands seem to do quite what is wanted here. -- Joe Wells <jbw@uswest.com>
