Hi Karl,

Do you mean that it did not set the Fcc header? If so, this is your
problem, and your wl-draft-config-alist setting is wrong in some way.
Perhaps you can post it?

By the way, there is no need to add that hook unless you want your
wl-draft-config-alist applied when you create a draft.
wl-draft-config-alist will be applied before sending.

Yes, the problem is your wl-draft-config-alist variable is not being
correct and is not being applied to some messages.

It sounds like you also use wl-template-alist? This could complicate
things.

best, Erik
