Why, because newer versions of lynx are better.
It is clear that lynx doesn't have any bug relating with printing option 2 ie Mail the file whatever version you use 2.8.x It is also clear that lynx already have this feature, there is no reason to wish something which is already implemented. If you do not have sendmail(1) on your system, look in lynx.cfg and edit appropriate lines. If you do not have such permision, to edit such file ask your system administrator, or run lynx with lynx -cfg=/path/to/your/configuration/file if lynx does not allow -cfg switch, your at dead end -> recompile your own version of lynx.
