Mon, 18 Sep 2006 19:46:21 +0000

Jumbo mail patch from our anonymous user:1) Use editline [optional]: Most of this code was borrowed from src/usr.bin/ftp. It does the appropriate editing, history, and completion for all mail commands (from cmdtab[]) and also does editing on header strings ('~h' inside the mail editor).2) '-B' flag: This will suppress the "To:" line passed to sendmail. In most configurations it will lead to sendmail adding "To: undisclosed recipients;". Currently, AFAIK mail requires at least one exposed recipient address.3) Comments in rcfile: Currently, comments in .mailrc are only supported if the first (non-white) character on a line is '#' followed by white space, i.e., '#' is a 'nop' command. This (trivial) patch allows the more normal/expected use of '#' as a comment character. It does not respect quoting, so that might be an objection which I should fix.4) Sendmail option editing: This adds the sendmail option string to the strings editable by the '~h' command within the mail editor. Currently, you can only set this string from the command-line, which is particularly annoying when replying to mail.5) Reply from: When replying to a message, grab the "To:" address from the message and, if there is only one such address and it does not match a list of allowed addresses (set in the "ReplyFrom" variable), pass it to sendmail as the "From:" address for the reply (with the '-f' option). I often make aliases for myself so that my primary address is not given out; if the alias gets out, I know who to blame. Unfortunately, a reply to such a message would normally use the primary address without this patch. A warning is displayed when this is going to happen so that it can be modified with '~h'.6) CC and BCC lists: Allow '-c' and '-b' to accept white-space or ',' delimited lists. Currently, a white-space delimited list of addresses work, but a list of aliases will not get expanded. For example, currently: mail -c "foo bar" christos will fail to send mail to 'foo' and 'bar' if these are mail aliases (in ~/.mailrc); sendmail aliases (in /etc/aliases) do work.7) pipe command: This pipes the current message into a shell command. I use this for quick decoding of uuencoded mail, but I can imagine it might be useful for decrypting encrypted mail, too.8) show command: This command takes a list of variables and shows their values. It is probably stupid as the 'set' command without any argument displays all variable values. Of course, if there are a lot of variables you have to sift through the list for the one(s) you want.
