I am playing with the FBSD's included mail client application 
trying to learn how it works. When I'm composing a new email 
message entering text into the body of the message, it's time 
to stop for the day I want to get out of the message create 
mode, not send the message and them start up again on that 
email the next day. The only the only 2 options is ctl + d  on 
a blank line to leave enter text mode and send the message 
or ~q to leave enter text mode and save message to mbox. The 
next day I can  mail -f  to open mbox edit message number to 
continue on with the creating the message body text. When I am 
done editing the message, it just replaces the same message in 
the mbox file. I can not see any command to just send message or 
resend message. I have read and reread the man page many times 
and can not find a answer. 

Is there a way in  mail  to send a existing message or resend a message?
