Composing messages
******************

This section shows you how to compose a message. With Mew, you can
create only MIME messages(messages without MIME-Version: cannot be
composed).

There are two methods to enter Draft mode to write a new message.

  1. Type `M-x mew-send'.
  2. Press `w' in Summary mode.

Then a buffer like the following is prepared.

     To:
     Subject:
     X-Mailer:  Mew version 1.93 on XEmacs 20.4
     Mime-Version: 1.0
     ----

We call this "Draft mode". A draft is temporary stored under the
+draft folder. You can write multiple messages at the same time.

Now let's see how to use Draft mode.
