    Thanks for your answers. My inability to understand continues
    unfortunately :(

    Yes I have seen this in the manual, but I still do not know how to use
    it. But nowhere in /etc/Muttrc or .muttrc I could see a definition of
    save-hook to explain this behaviour of 's'. I have been looking for
    it because I wanted to define fcc-hook in the same way.

    I understand this if you use a spesific user and address. There is a
    good example in the manual about this. But I want mutt to get the
    values for "address" and "folder" in your example from the "To:" field
    in the same way it gets the values from the "From:" field when I use
    's'.

    I think my remarks (which might show my slowness to understand) above
    explain my questions.

    I have previously used this:

    set record="+sent-mail-`date +%Y-%m`"
    fcc-hook . "=/sent-mail/`date +%Y%m`"

    But I want to change it to use the user's folder in stead.

    There is also no "default_hook" in either /etc/Muttrc or .muttrc.

    Pleas be patient with me. One day I will understand :)

    Regards
