2.3.1.3: Editing the header

Because the header is part of the message, you can edit the header fields as you wish. However, several convenience functions exist to help you create and edit them. For example, the command C-c C-f C-t (mh-to-field; alternatively, C-c C-f t) moves the cursor to the `To:' header field, creating it if necessary. The functions to move to the `cc:', `Subject:', `From:', `Bcc:', and `Dcc:' header fields are similar.

One function behaves differently from the others, namely, C-c C-f C-f (mh-to-fcc; alternatively, C-c C-f f). This function will prompt you for the folder name in which to file a copy of the draft.

Be sure to leave a row of dashes or a blank line between the header and the body of the message.
