Unfortunately i introduced "another fault", another non-portable-across-implementations problem. It is the *metoo* variable that does not affect `alternates' (command) names in the historical, and the BSD codebases, but _only_ $LOGNAME. For those, `alternates' are _always_ removed from recipient lists (and _only_ when replying). (And the *from* and *sender* variables are non-portable.) (It is also that further mailx(1) development can hardly be expected in portable manner, standardizable manner.) Desired Action: On page 3085, line 103783 ff., change Suppress the deletion of the user’s login name and any alternative addresses from the recipient list when replying to a message or sending to a group. The default shall be nometoo. to Suppress the deletion of the user’s login name from the recipient list when replying to a message or sending to a group. The default shall be nometoo. On page 3087, line 103869 ff., change Declare a list of alternative addresses for the address consisting of the user’s login name. When responding to a message or sending to a group, if the metoo variable is unset these alternative addresses shall be removed from the list of recipients. The comparison of addresses shall be performed in a case-insensitive manner. With no arguments, alternates shall write the current list of alternative addresses. to Declare a list of alternative addresses for the address consisting of the user’s login name.
