Hi,

s-nail 14.8.10-1.

I'm running mail(1) with script(1) and there's a race between mail
forking so the child can run sendmail, the parent mail doesn't wait for
the child, and script seeing the parent mail has finished and stopping.
A SIGHUP can stop sendmail being run.  syslog shows no entries for the
mail and it's lost.

Most of the time, it works fine, but, especially for small emails, the
mail doesn't get sent and there's no diagnostic.  I looked for a `no
fork, stay in foreground' option, but didn't spot anything.  Suggestions
welcome.  :-)

Cheers, Ralph.
