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?
