1 | README -- Differences between Mailutils and the RAND implementation of MH: | ||
2 | |||
3 | |||
4 | * All programs use usual GNU long options. The support for MH single-dot | ||
5 | options is provided for backward compatibility. | ||
6 | |||
7 | * Format specifications | ||
8 | ** Function unre | ||
9 | This function is a GNU extension. It removes any leading whitespace | ||
10 | and eventual "Re:" prefix from its string argument. Useful for creating | ||
11 | subjects in reply messages: | ||
12 | |||
13 | %<{subject}Subject: Re: %(unre{subject})\\n%> | ||
14 | |||
15 | ** Function rcpt | ||
16 | Mailutils provides new format function rcpt. The function takes a | ||
17 | string argument (one of "to", "cc", "me", "all") and returns true | ||
18 | if the given element is present in the recipient mask (as modified | ||
19 | by any --cc and --nocc options) and false otherwise. It is used in | ||
20 | default formats for repl and comp, e.g.: | ||
21 | |||
22 | %(lit)%<(rcpt to)%(formataddr{to})%> | ||
23 | |||
24 | Notice that this means that usual replcomps file will be ignoring | ||
25 | --cc and --nocc options, unless it has been modified as shown above. | ||
26 | |||
27 | * rmm | ||
28 | |||
29 | ** Different behaviour if one of the messages in the list does not exist. | ||
30 | |||
31 | Mailutils rmm does not delete any messages. Standard rmm in this case | ||
32 | deletes all messages preceeding the non-existent one. | ||
33 | |||
34 | ** The rmmproc: profile component is not used. | ||
35 | |||
36 | * fmtdump command is not provided. Use fmtcheck instead. | ||
37 | |||
38 | |||
39 | Local variables: | ||
40 | mode: outline | ||
41 | paragraph-separate: "[ ]*$" | ||
42 | end: |
