   that is not a good idea... unless the MSGID is changed it would generally be   
   seen as a duplicate and thrown away... one could make a second copy of the   
   message which should get its own MSGID and then they could edit that one... it   
   really depends on the software... some might keep the MSGID the same if the   
   message has not been sent yet... if it has been sent, it could make a second   
   copy with a new MSGID and you could edit that... there might even be a notice   
   box popped up about the copy being made since the message was already sent...

   that's a bit different as the PKT was set aside so the MSGIDs would not have   
   been processed... in this case, one would generally unset the "sent" bit of the   
    message(s) and trigger a new outbound mail scan which would pack the messages   
   into a new PKT and send them off again... hopefully this time, the problem with   
    the PKT has been fixed so the messages would be properly processed and passed   
   on...
