Hi Francesco,

Do you mean that you are using the wl-template-alist variable or the
wl-draft-config-alist variable?

In any case I don’t think you can set wl-draft-folder in this way. By
the time you get to either templates or draft config the message is
already saved in a folder.

As for wl-fcc, what you want to do is set the “Fcc” header, not use
the wl-fcc variable. The wl-fcc variable, as I read the docstring, is
the folder “initially added at creating draft buffer.”

I believe they is information in the mailing list archives about this.
You also might try switching to the el-get version.
