Mailqueue mailfolder



Hi mutt-users,

for people who are not always connected to an ISP it would be practical
to have a special mailfolder for queued outgoing mail like many GUI mail
programs have it. Normally, for example when using mutt with sendmail,
outgoing mail is queued in the /var tree and at this point only the root
superuser has still access to it in case the send should be aborted and
the outgoing mail deleted or changed. To allow the control over queued
mail I thought it would be fine to have a mailqueue mailfolder and when
connected to the ISP sending all its content with a single keystroke. I
thought that maybe the postponed folder could be turned into a mailqueue
folder but then mail cannot be postponed anymore and there is no command
to send postponed mail without reediting it. So, I am just curious if
there would be a way to do this.

Best regards

Jens
