You *very* simply press 'b' in alpine, too (by the guy who invented
IMAP, BTW) and the message bounces away quite lightly without a trace
(which kind of bothers me, actually, and I wonder if there's an antidote for
that, though I don't use the feature often, in the beginning because I
didn't know exactly what the hell 'bounce' in the sense 'redirection'
was).
Simple is as simple does, I guess.
