Hello team,

Bravo for 9.0 release,

About 9.1 release.
Proposing to replace MUA Heirloom mailx by s-nail
https://www.sdaoden.eu/code.html

Heirloom mailx
-  not very alive.
-  need patches to be build within BLFS
-  no upstream designer.

S-nail
- Mature and alive project
- No patches needed to be build within BLFS
- Upstream designer very responsive.
- Can be build on FreeBSD and Linux OS type (I Like that)
- git available (https://repo.or.cz/s-mailx.git)

Comments?

On the other hand, mailx is stable with the instructions we have and works fine. AFAIK, the only real use for it is in scripts and occasional testing.

What does S-nail actually provide the user that mailx does not.
