Right now my drafts folder, which had been working flawlessly is doing something strange. Firstly the drafts folder appears to be ~/News/drafts/drafts which seems strange enough, but then I see things like: buffer-auto-save-file-name's value is "/home/stark/Mail/drafts/#*message*#" There are at least two things wrong with that variable, for one it's the wrong directory, for another that's a pretty bad choice of filenames. It seems to me we should just set auto-save-visited-file-name to t for drafts files anyways. Also, it's really annoying to be asked if i want to save a mail when i haven't written anything in it yet. It would be nice to flip the modified flag off just after setting up the headers. -- greg
