Yes: you shouldn't be removing the message when you finish writing it.
Mutt will remove it once it is sent. That is kind of like if vi
removed the file every time you quit it. Thus mutt doesn't see any
changes between the original (empty/nonexistant) and what it is when
your "editor" finishes (nonexistant).
