[Gllug] mutt & saved outgoing encrypted email

[Alain Williams]

I occasionally send encrypted email with mutt (often in reply to an encrypted email).
Something like that I will often save into an appropriate file as a record of what I wrote.
Mutt saves the body that was sent as an encrypted attachment

The trouble is that the stored email is encrypted using the *receipient's* public key,
since I don't know their private key I cannot decrypt it and so cannot later read
what I sent them.

What I want is to store it encrypted using my key.
I have disovered 'set fcc_clear' which will store it unencrypted, but it means
that someone gaining my saved copy will know that I am selling nuclear secrets to
the Iranians ... Oh, I mean: know what rates I am negotiating with people :-)

Is there some hook magic that will reencrypt it with my key ? AFIR Kmail does this.

I am using mutt-1.4.1-10 on a RedHat (well, Centos) system.
