I get the headers as part of the message to edit, I have always done
this and I think it comes from setting edit_header. I am happy to add
the subject there. I would prefer to not have to hit enter when
No Subject: Abort? ([Yes]/No
comes up. I have:-
folder-hook . set abort_nosubject=ask-yes
folder-hook mutt.dev set abort_nosubject=ask-no
folder-hook mutt.dev \
'macro index M "<mail>mutt-dev^M^M" "mail to list"<enter>'
It asks the abort and demands the response whether I have the <enter>
there or not. Maybe I have it in the wrong place.
Cheers, Brian.
