Thanks a lot for the feedback.

I will change ~/postponed to $(mutt -Q postponed).

I've never used Maildir. Is /home/vagrant/Mail/Drafts a directory or a
file in your case?
If it is a directory, should I write/append the mail in
/home/vagrant/Mail/Drafts/postponed, or use a new temporary file in
/home/vagrant/Mail/Drafts. Do you know if I can put multiple messages in
such postpone file when Maildir are used?

Thanks in advance,
