I use stable mutt(1.3), you use testing mutt(1.4) :)

I did not change default.  'E' is only available after creating message.
(It is not available to edit incoming message in raw form.  That is 'e'.)

In my stable mutt (1.3), pressing '?' after creating message right before
sending message brings out menu:

E           edit-headers           edit the message with headers
...
e           edit-message           edit the message

Is this 1.3 version only thing and 1.4 does not have?  Just curious.

(I checked my .muttrc and does not have bind for 'E'.)
