MPE/iX Shell and Utilities Reference Manual, Vol 1

mailx(1) MPE/iX Shell and Utilities mailx(1)
metoo
when replying to a message with your login name in the recipient list, sends a reply
to all other recipients, the author and you. If nometoo is set, you are not sent the
reply. The default is nometoo .
onehop
attempts to send replies directly to the recipients instead of going through the origi-
nal author’s machine. When you reply to a message, your reply is sent to the author
and all recipients of the message. On a network, mailx normally specifies the recip-
ient addresses so that the replies all go to the original author’s machine first, then on
to the other recipients.
outfolder
causes files used to record outgoing messages (see the description of
record )tobe
located in the directory given by folder unless folder contains an absolute path
name. The default is nooutfolder .
page
tells the pipe command to insert a formfeed character after each message that it sends
through the pipe. The default is
nopage .
PAGER
contains a command, possibly including options. mailx sends display output
through this command if the output is longer than the screen length given by
screen . The default is the more utility (see more(1)).
prompt
contains a string that mailx displays to prompt for output in command mode. The
default is a question mark followed by a space (? ).
quiet
does not display the opening message and version number when mailx begins a ses-
sion. The default is noquiet .
record
contains a file name where mailx records every message you send. If record is
not an absolute path name and the outfolder variable has not been set, the file is
located under the HOME directory. If the outfolder variable is set, the file is
located in your folder directory. The default is norecord .
Replyall
reverses the senses of the reply and Reply commands (so that reply only replies to
the author of a message, and Reply replies to the author and all other recipients). See
also flipr .
