Mutt won't compose a new mail message?

[Nick Wilson]

Hi all,

I've just started using Mutt and after a mighty struggle can now pick up mail from a pop server. Hurrah! :D

Problem is that when I hit 'm' to compose new mail I get this msg: 'Aborted unmodified message' Boo! :(

I've no idea what's going on so any pointers would be great.

Much thanks

When do you get that message, right after pressing m? I know that by default mutt has a setting that will abort a message that you leave blank, but that comes after you are done editing the message.

When does it show up

Hi

Comes up exactly after pressing m

I found that setting in my .muttrc and changed it and now it works fine.

Problem now is that it will of course be possible for me to send undedited messages.

Weird. Any thoughts?
