Double oops. Too many days switching between Solaris and FreeBSD methinx.

I think we're talking about different things. Apropos the thread, I'm
talking about the 'from' command which lists the contents of your
mailbox.
The 'from' that ships with FreeBSD assumes an mbox format mailbox. I
would expect that *all* commands related to mail should be mapped to a
mail-system specific commands. Perhaps 'biff' is another command that
should likewise be mappable.
