Saving email, forward to compose

Dear List,


I use multiple imap acounts and shift with macros between them:

macro index,pager <f5> '<sync-mailbox><enter-command>source ~/.config/mutt/conf/imap1<enter><change-folder>!<enter>'
macro index,pager <f6> '<sync-mailbox><enter-command>source ~/.config/mutt/conf/imap2<enter><change-folder>!<enter>'

If I save an email to another folder by pressing 's', Mutt asks me if the email should be attached to the target folder.
After press y, the related email is marked with a "D".

If I switch to the other accout with <F5>, the saved messages is openend in the vim editor.
I have to close vim by pressing :q! and I'm in the email send dialog (as I would press "m").

The header "to"  is  containing the text of the macro, something like "ig/mutt/conf/imap2 at host.

But if I sync manually with key "$" before shifting to the other account, Mutt asks me to delete the message
in the actual folder.
After press "y" I'm not forwarded to the compose menu.

I use a selfcompiled Mutt from git master.

What could be wrong?


Kind regrds
