I've noticed some recent postings regarding 'from' type programs for mail.
For those of us without perl (yet!), the following csh alias will list who
mail is from, with a date and a subject (an improvement over /usr/ucb/from).
If someone has already posted something like this then Sorry!

Note a couple of things:
- This assumes mail headers are like they are at our site -- if it doesn't work
  for you change it or don't use it...don't tell me there's a bug, cuz there
  ain't...
- The environment variable MAIL should read '/usr/spool/mail/YOURLOGINHERE'
