comp(1)'s -to can be given more than once, but comp constructs a single To field. $ grep To /etc/nmh/components %<{to}%(void(width))%(putaddr To: )%|To:%> $ $ comp -build -form /etc/nmh/components -from me -to foo -to bar $ $ cat mail/draft From: me To: foo, bar cc: Fcc: +outbox Subject: -------- $ I used -form because my personal mail/components file works differently. -- Cheers, Ralph.
