3 months ago When you send a message, you must have seen it, so marking it as "unread" would be a bit odd. You should be able to find recently sent message by sorting them by date.
Of course, there's a use-case for everything, but I attempt to limit this kind of niche-customizations since they're the most likely to break with some refactoring. But, perhaps you can use a "SentRecently" folder for sending messages and setup up refiling from there to more permanent location, "Sent"?
Anyway, have to decline this. Sorry!
Note, please see the IDEAS.org file in repository root for existing ideas; maybe it's already there.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Not a problem, merely a matter of taste: I like to have sent messages saved in the sent folder as new messages. This way I can easily see the recently sent messages (and have the option to mark them as read or whatnot).
Describe the solution you'd like I would like to have an option (e.g., customizable variable) to turn this feature on, something along the attached patch.
Describe alternatives you've considered I am already running mu4e trivially patched as follows:
