When you declare a variable inside a function, it becomes local to the
function.  The SendMail_Cmd and MailEdit_Reply_To commands need to be
made global:

  variable SendMail_Cmd = 
     "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oem -odb -f duke0fperl <at> ml1.net";
  variable MailEdit_Reply_To = "dukeofperl <at> ml1.net";

  define mail_hook ()
  {
     mailedit_mode ();
     local_setkey ("mail_send", "^C^C");
     local_setkey ("mail_kill_buffer", "^Xk");
  }
