I was replying to your message, saved the tmp file , and pressed y to send. Mutt replied "no recipients specified." Well, excuse me, but I had used the reply command, so I don't understand why it would have lost that data. There are other ways and times in which I want to abort after writing the tmp file, but postponing seems to be the only option.

It will ask you if you want to send, hit q. It will ask you if you want to postpone it, hit n, and it will throw it away. The only advantage to this method seems to be that you won't end up with a postponed file in your home dir.
