Not exactly. What I *really* want is for Mutt to "forget" a variable
that I've just set, because I only want the settings to persist for
one email. Using 'send' and 'abort' in the compose menu to trigger
the forgetting was the closest I could come.
The system worked like a charm for a month, because I never
encountered the use case that I presented in my original mail. But
I'm coming up against the reality that there is this one case in which
a message ends--neither sent nor aborted in the compose context--that
can't trigger my forgetting mechanism.
