directory, and then sent at a later time?  perhaps when smtpmail is
called again to send another message?

That seems to be specific to VM, so I'll let the VM crowd handle it.

Well, it is not really a VM thing, except to say that VM is still using mail-mode for sending mail, which is semi-obsolete. mail-mode puts FCC headers in the message composition buffer and leaves them there until the message gets sent.

Perhaps moving to message-mode will cure the problem?
