mailx
set cmd="cat"
pipes messages through cat when the pipe subcommand is invoked. The
default is nocmd.
crt Contains an integer number. If a message has more than this number of
lines, the message is piped through the command given by the PAGER
variable, whenever the message is displayed. crt is not set; the default is
nocrt.
debug Enables verbose diagnostics for debugging. Messages are not delivered.
the default is nodebug.
dot Accepts a line consisting only of a dot (.) to indicate the end of a message
in input mode. Thus . is equivalent to ~.. The default is nodot. If ignoreeof
is set, mailx ignores a setting of nodot; the period is the only way to end
input mode.
escape
Gives the character used to begin input-mode subcommands. The default is
the tilde (~). If this variable is unset, tilde is used as the escaping character.
If this variable is set to null, mailx disables command escaping.
flipr Reverses the meanings of the R and r subcommands. The default is
noflipr. See also Replyall.
folder Contains the name of a directory in which mailx saves mail files. This lets
you specify a standard directory for saving mail files. Whenever you specify
a filename for a mailx command, putting a plus sign (+) in front of the name
specifies that the file is to be accessed in the folder directory.
header
If the value of folder begins with a slash, it is taken as an absolute
pathname; otherwise, mailx assumes that the directory is directly under
your HOME directory. The default is nofolder. If you want to use + in
filenames that appear on the mailx command line itself (as opposed to
commands in a mailx session), you must make folder an exported shell
environment variable.
Displays a summary of message headers at the beginning of a mailx
command-mode session. This is the default.
hold Keeps all messages in your system mailbox instead of saving them in your
personal mbox. The default is nohold.
ignore
Ignores interrupts received while composing a message. The default is
noignore.
ignoreeof
Ignores end-of-file markers found while entering a message. The message
can be ended by “.” or ~. on a line by itself. The default is noignoreeof.
indent Contains a string that mailx uses as a prefix to each line in messages that
~m and ~M insert. The default is one tab character.
indentprefix
As with indent, contains a string that mailx uses as a prefix to each line in
messages that ~m and ~M insert. The default is one tab character. If both
indent and indentprefix are set, indentprefix takes precedence.
keep Does not remove your system mailbox if the mailbox contains no
