S-mailx: 'It is considered a security problem...'
        I hadn't thought about this.  I defer to your judgment.  It's
open-source: I can build my own.

        IGSHvNGvS: 'quite a lot of people of the elder generation use
it, Mr. Doug McIlroy comes to mind at very first.'
        I went to college with Doug McElroy.

        IGSHvNGvS: 'S-nail does not have the spam support that
Heirloom had'
        I fetch mail with fetchmail; I send mail with sendmail; I
don't send spam anyway.

        IGSHvNGvS: 'What do you think of prompting when interactive?
I think i will add that for the next release.'
        I respect your judgment.  I thought I had found a bug.

        IGSHvNGvS: 'Ooooh!  How complicated!  May i ask you why you
are doing that?'
        I support my archiving system.  For many years I had no
Internet connection.  (I lived in a cabin in the desert in the
mountains.)  I went into town once a week.  I wrote messages all week,
then sent them in a batch when I was in town.  I name message files
after the addressee, append them to the archive of that name after I
send them.  I send better messages when I think about them again.

        IGSHvNGvS: 'I realized this is not possible without manual
intervention.  We do have "Copy" and "Save", but these take the name
part'
        I was describing my practice, not asking for a change.  'Save'
works.

        wank?  Isn't that wichsen?  Is that a naughty word?
