TFM. It says that mush will only add Date: and From: fields if they are missing... Waiting for suggestions how to add/change a field (awk, sed, perl)??? Furthermore, in the meantime, I discovered that something funny is going on. On follow-ups, there are no problems, but mush is not invoked at all. On replies and mailings, something funny is going on... Here is the output from ps -x: PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND 12018 p1 S 0:00 -h -i (tcsh) 12020 p1 R 0:00 ps -x 10835 x6 S 0:11 -tcsh (tcsh) 11921 x6 I 0:00 nnaux /usr/local/lib/nn/aux reply 11932 x6 I 0:00 nnaux /usr/local/lib/nn/aux reply 11934 x6 I 0:00 /common/teexnma/bin/mush_script -f /common/teexnma/bin/mus 11935 x6 R 5:50 /common/teexnma/bin/mush -U -h - ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 12017 x6 S 0:00 script 12019 x6 S 0:00 script The mush has been running for 5 (!!!) mins, and in the end I had to kill it. Needless to say, the message never got delivered... Furthermore, I had to change -send to -U, and -draft to -h, since the former produced odd results in ps -x (i.e., mush was running with params: -U end -h aft - ). BTW, I'm running mush v7.2.0 (which I can upgrade if needed) and nn 6.4.0 #3 (which I can't upgrade easily). Now I'm thoroughly confused :-) --Nino -- Janet: nino@uk.ac.ucl.sm.mph \ Nino Margetic Earn/Bitnet: nino@mph.sm.ucl.ac.uk \ Dept. of Medical Physics Internet: nino%mph.sm.ucl.ac.uk@nsfnet-relay.ac.uk\ University College London Bang-path: ....!mcvax!ukc!ucl-mph!nino \ Tel:+44-71-380-9300/x5313
