That was exactly the feature I was thinking that mutt would need. ;) So yeah, that is obviously better than the "postponed" hackery I showed. I notice that "-H" even causes mutt to ignore "-i" (a sendmail flag that Git adds to sendemail.sendmailcmd). So you can just invoke it directly from your config like: git config sendemail.sendmailcmd "mutt -H -" Annoyingly, "-E" doesn't work when reading over stdin (I guess mutt isn't willing to re-open the tty itself). But if you're happy with not editing as they go through, then "-H" is then that's enough (in my workflow, I do the final proofread via mutt). -Peff
