And from the arcane mail scripts department...

If you use mh or nmh (or at least have it installed), you might 
enjoy this, although it's quite rough. (Doesn't repaint the screen,
for one thing.)

lynx.cfg:
   SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/local/bin/lynxmailprompt.sh

lynxmailprompt.sh:
   #!/bin/bash
   PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/mh
   exec &>/dev/tty
   tmpfn=/tmp/$$.mail
   trap "exec </dev/tty &>/dev/tty;stty sane;whatnow $tmpfn;stty raw -echo" 0
   cat - >>$tmpfn

This operates at a different level from the other script ideas.
Mail is composed with lynx as usual, but when it's time to send it,
"whatnow" gives me a chance to decide whether I really want to send it,
make a copy, etc.
