Package: bsd-mailx

Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

Running the following command produces the given error:
$ echo test | mail -b [email protected] -s test
mail: You must specify direct recipients with -t when -s, -c, or -b is used

bsd-mailx does not have a -t option.

I believe the suggestion to use -t was introduced with the fix for bug
#327809, which was to fix a previously confusing but correct error
message.

Maybe the wording "You must specify to-addr recipients when using -s,
-c, or -b" would be better?

Dan
