Where do I get mailx for the 3b1, ver 3.0? Don't bother. Mush is better in most respects. The only area I find it lacking in is that it can not parse the >From line, so if the sender's mailer doesn't put a From: line in, it doesn't know where the mail came from and can't autoreply or display a correct header. But this is no big deal, and I'm told this will be fixed in the future. If you don't feel like building it yourself, you're welcome to snarf it off of my system. It's MUSH 6.2 plus two additional fixes supplied by the author. Take the following files out of my ~uucp : mush.1.Z (about 100K) mush_help.Z (about 8K) put this and your mush.rc in /usr/lib/mailx mush.rc (this is optional. This is just mine, catered to my tastes. It also has key bindings for the UNIX PC console in curses mode. The curses mode may have problems on 3.0's broken curses. I use 3.51a.)
