<h3 class="section">8.5 Editing Old Drafts and Bounced Messages</h3>

<p><a name="index-g_t_0040file_007bdraft_007d-1093"></a><a name="index-files_002c-_0040file_007bdraft_007d-1094"></a><a name="index-re_002dediting-drafts-1095"></a><a name="index-mh_002dedit_002dagain-1096"></a><a name="index-F-v-drafts-1097"></a><a name="index-e-1098"></a><a name="index-n-1099"></a>
If you don't complete a draft for one reason or another, and if the
draft buffer is no longer available, you can pick your draft up again
with <kbd>e</kbd> (<code>mh-edit-again</code>). If you don't use a draft
folder, your last <samp><span class="file">draft</span></samp> file will be used. If you use draft
folders, you'll need to visit the draft folder with <kbd>F v drafts
&lt;RET&gt;</kbd>, use <kbd>n</kbd> to move to the appropriate message, and then
use <kbd>e</kbd> to prepare the message for editing.

   <p><a name="index-e-1100"></a>
The <kbd>e</kbd> command can also be used to take messages that were sent
to you and to send them to more people.

   <p><a name="index-Mailer_002dDaemon-1101"></a><a name="index-mh_002dextract_002drejected_002dmail-1102"></a><a name="index-C_002dc-C_002dc-1103"></a><a name="index-E-1104"></a>
Don't use <kbd>e</kbd> to re-edit a message from a <i>Mailer-Daemon</i> who
complained that your mail wasn't posted for some reason or another. In
this case, use <kbd>E</kbd> (<code>mh-extract-rejected-mail</code>) to prepare
the message for editing by removing the <i>Mailer-Daemon</i> envelope and
unneeded header fields. Fix whatever addressing problem you had, and
send the message again with <kbd>C-c C-c</kbd>.
