Unfortunately John, the above does not seem to work. I have:

define mail_hook ()
{
   mailedit_mode ();
   local_setkey ("mail_send", "^C^C");
   local_setkey ("mail_kill_buffer", "^Xk");
   variable SendMail_Cmd = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oem -odb -f
duke0fperl@xxxxxxx";
}
%
define mailedit_mode_hook ()
{
   variable MailEdit_Reply_To = "dukeofperl@xxxxxxx";
}

None of it is working when Jed is the MUA.

When using Jed from within Alpine, (jed %s -tmp --mailedit-mode),
again the mode in the status line shows up as "Text" instead of
"mailedit".

AS well, the following appearrs to be ignored:
set_realname ("Duke Normandin");
set_username ("dukeofperl");
%set_hostname ("no.where.com");
set_hostname ("ml1.net");
set_emailaddress ("dukeofperl@xxxxxxx");

Should this stuff also be in MailEdit_mode_hook?
