Would it be worthwhile to rework the RFC into a manpage (I am willing to do it), or should I bother the providers of ports that use it (such as, say, alpine (and possibly others)? The problem is, they likely don't bundle it because other OSes have it already. It's a fairly standard file, but FreeBSD doesn't ship with an MUA that uses it (I *think*). I know mail(1) does not. -Dan -- --------Dan Mahoney-------- Techie, Sysadmin, WebGeek Gushi on efnet/undernet IRC ICQ: 13735144 AIM: LarpGM Site: http://www.gushi.org ---------------------------
