I don't know what is going on.  I am wondering if Citadel tries to
outsmart the user by automatically saving sent messages for you when
you use its SMTP server to send something.  You should check the
SMTP/Sendmail server you are using to verify that this is or is not
the case.  You can also see if it is a SquirrelMail problem by putting
some output at the bottom of src/compose.php, near line 1654 you can
put something like "echo 'COPYING TO SENT FOLDER'; exit;".  Also you
did not follow up my informational requests: you have to state your SM
version and please verify that you have disabled all plugins.

SM 1.4.15, plugins disabled--sorry, I got a little click happy.
I will try to add  some output at the bottom of src/compose.php, near line 1654 and as soon as I can I will post the results.

Thanks for your patience.
