- You might try the following (in your .mailrc) instead of cc...
-
- set outfolder
- set folder=/maine/mail
- set record=!Outbox
-
- everything you send will be put into the mail folder /maine/mail/!Outbox.
- Make sure you check !Outbox often to resort to another folder or delete
- what you don't need. A subtle difference is that the cc line wouldn`t
- be sent. I usually delete that line for replies if it only contains the
- sender.

- Hope that helps,
