Keywords: mail,verbose Message-ID: <15804@mimsy.UUCP> Date: 4 Feb 89 20:15:30 GMT Reply-To: dcl@lakisis.umd.edu (Richard Faulkenberry) Organization: University of Maryland, Dept. of Mathematics Lines: 41 I have become accustomed to viewing the conversation supplied by the "verbose" switch of the UNIX sendmail program. I am not sure how to toggle this switch using the Emacs sendmail. Ideally, I would like to capture this output as a trailer in my FCC. A sample output to FCC: To: john@vax1 From: jim@vax2 Subject: Party Tonite at 8. Aloha. john@vax1... Connecting to vax1.state.edu via smtp... Trying 123.4.56.78... connected 220 vax1.STATE.EDU Sendmail 1.2/25 ready at Friday the 13th midnight >>> HELO vax2.state.edu 250 vax1.STATE.EDU Hello vax2.state.edu, pleased to meet you >>> MAIL From: 250 ... Sender ok >>> RCPT To: 250 ... Recipient ok >>> DATA 354 Enter mail, end with"." on a line by itself >>>. 250 Ok >>> QUIT 221 vax1.STATE.EDU closing connection john@vax1... Sent In a successful transmission as this, I would trim the trailer at a later time. In a problematic case, I would find the information quite useful. Perhaps the emacs RMAIL could be modified with a toggle for displaying trailers just as it has for headers (rmail-toggle-header). Any suggestions?
