Gnus (sometimes) passes "-f foo" as an arg to sendmail, where the foo
comes from a (buffer-local?) variable.  If you store the message in
the drafts group, then edit it from there, the variable might have
another value altogether, especially if the original value was
buffer-local to begin with.

Maybe it would work to remember all buffer-local variables when
saving a draft, so that they can be restored on `D e'.

To fix this particular problem, only the value for the -f arg needs
to be remembered, though.

(From a later message I gather that you think that Gnus has a bug
there.  I agree.  I don't think that Jesper wanted to convince you
there is no bug, he just wanted to explain.)
