Does that actually make a difference?

If you mean the spaces between the lines, those aren't actually there...
I just spaced it out over a few lines for readability.

It fails at <send-message> - for some reason, in the attachment viewer
screen, <send-message> gets interpreted as "<save-entry>end-message" (at
least after <reply> fails).
so if I just go to:
"...<last-entry><search-reverse>message/rfc822<enter><reply><send-message>"
I get:
Save to file: end-message>

I just want to do whatever makes the editor fail ("aborted unmodified
message"). I'd think just leaving the edited file the same should do
that, but exiting (w/ either 0 or 1) still seems to end up sending the
message even though the original tempfile hasn't changed.
