The latter is for postponing more messages, the former for recalling them. > Now next time you compose (m) an email it will ask you if you want > to recall the postponed messages or just go directly to the new > message. Or you might even set it to "no", which disables recalling postponed messages from the 'm' (compose) function altogether. To manually recall one, there's still the 'R' command. Regards, Jan
