Package: bsd-mailx Version: 8.1.2-0.20071201cvs-2 Severity: wishlist
every so often i mistakenly type "mail" rather than "mailq" and have to quickly suspend and kill it so that it doesn't bugger up the read/unread status on my mailbox or, worse, move my inbox to ~/mbox (i don't even want mutt doing that). i've been doing this for years. mail itself is quite useful - WHEN i want to use it. i often use it to send mail from the command line or from a script. so i don't want to uninstall or disable it. it would be nice, however, to have a "quitifnoargs" (or similar) command that i could put in ~/.mailrc or /etc/mail.rc so that i can't accidentally run mail when i want to run mailq. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23.11 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_AU, LC_CTYPE=en_AU (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bsd-mailx depends on: ii base-files 4.0.2 Debian base system miscellaneous f ii libc6 2.7-6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii liblockfile1 1.06.2 NFS-safe locking library, includes ii postfix [mail-transport-agent 2.4.6-4 High-performance mail transport ag bsd-mailx recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
