[comp.mail.elm] query on saving incoming/outgoing mail

alfred@unisql.UUCP (Alfred Correira) (10/02/90)

I would like ALL my outgoing mail to go to <maildir>/.sent, even if a folder
exists for the recipient.  I want incoming mail that I wish to retain to go to
the sender's folder by default (i.e., I want to see a default =sender option on
save so I can just hit RETURN and go on); the folder should be created if not
already in existence.  I can't seem to find a set of values for forcename,
sentmail, copy, and savename (or any other variables, for that matter) that
will let me do this.  Is this because it cannot be done in the current release
of Elm or simply because I haven't correctly parsed the description(s) in the
Elm user manual?

Please don't ask me why I want it this way ;-)
