I've just installed exim and heirloom-mailx on a test vm to confirm my suspicions. mailx does give the prompt back - but because a delivery report was requested, and exim sends it to the screen rather than emailing it, the prompt disappears in the noise (my exim config isn't correct, so the mail goes nowhere, but that doesn't matter for the example). The prompt comes back after the first 2 lines of the delivery report: - -------8<--------- richard@test:~$ mailx -v [email protected] Subject: test asdf EOT LOG: MAIN <= [email protected] U=richard P=local S=529 richard@test:~$ delivering 1WqEdr-0008Bx-7C R: nonlocal for [email protected] LOG: MAIN ** [email protected] R=nonlocal: Mailing to remote domains not supported LOG: MAIN <= <> R=1WqEdr-0008Bx-7C U=Debian-exim P=local S=1419 delivering 1WqEdr-0008C1-BH R: system_aliases for [email protected] R: userforward for [email protected] R: procmail for [email protected] R: maildrop for [email protected] R: lowuid_aliases for [email protected] (UID 1000) R: local_user for [email protected] T: appendfile for [email protected] LOG: MAIN Completed LOG: MAIN => richard <[email protected]> R=local_user T=mail_spool LOG: MAIN Completed - -------8<-------- Richard -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Icedove - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTiA3cAAoJELSi8I/scBaNwAYH/RI8e+0RKwkT+ULx7MgO06d/ X11UyJhk7obyKItrSuHGuGqXIKlGVG0urSdXXyW2kW6O5ccj4OUQIB5dTI76dJD3 6H5fukzD5l6TJ0ua+7Mz2IrJl5EUEas4HyUtw681BzQGVfCaCFnqrAARi8R29HqN cr/KjRpkyxY0uyvBxHEkRCnGRu7D/cqD/fYMKi8Sl81i8JwxiQBY3MyCxlcWyEti YJu/ozUacjSFYoCjc9H+3+TKUuelcHTGzQOIOGtHg2+jj44ElGHkn47BhaWsh9YG //teSISH6jOd9m/pEVO790M28/YeKBeVWgtkXMRnJwPvgucxCMJHoFbf3rODqac= =KEvp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
