- Well, I don't know how to do the ideal case, but I believe you can get
- MH to do the first for you. Just create a file called "components" in
- you Mail directory that contains all of the headers you want. If you
- don't currently have one in your personal directory then the default
- one where the MH programs are stored is probably being used. The
- default "components" file usually contains:
-
- To:
- cc:
- Subject:
- -------
-
- Just add the FCC to your private version.
-
- To:
- cc:
- Fcc:
- Subject:
- -------
-
- In fact, if you want to file all of your outgoing mail to a specific
- folder then you can put that in, too.
