[1.4i PATCH] current mailbox as default outbox

[Richard Hitier <groz@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

one of my needs is to follow my own mails in a thread.
Using many mboxes, I have to save the outgoing message in the mbox where
I answered a mail.

 patch-1.3.23.bj.current_shortcut.1 couldn't work for me  (?)
(using ^ as current mbox shortcut in a fcc-hook)

So I wrote the following one activating the feature with a muttrc
variable: save_current


BTW,

    - I used diff -pruN,
      is there a better way ?

    - what is a patch level number ?

any suggestion welcome.

thx
