I'm running MH 6.7 from emacs (18.57) on a Sun4.  (mh-e.el version 3.7
or /var/home/larus/lib/emacs/RCS/mh-e.el,v 3.1 90/09/28 15:47:58 larus
Exp Locker: larus ).

Sometimes I try send a message with a Fcc: line with a folder that
does not yet exist.  mh-send-letter brings up a buffer called
*mh-temp* which asks whether I want to create the folder.

If I type "yes" in the *mh-temp* buffer, the message gets sent, but
the folder doesn't get created.

If I type "y" in my inbox folder, the message gets sent, the *mh-temp*
buffer disappears, but the folder still doesn't get created.

1.  What's the proper response to the question?  From which buffer
does the question have to be answered?
2.  Is this documented somewhere?

Thanks,
Steve Kelem
