[comp.emacs] verbose mail mode

   Is it possible, under RMAIL, to get sendmail to run in verbose mode so
   that the mail is sent immediately and I can see the transactions, ie
   like doing a mail -v user@host?

You can get most of this effect by set mail-interactive to t -- Emacs
will then wait for sendmail to run and display any errors that it
returns.  If you want sendmail to be verbose, you'll have to change
sendmail.el a bit: in sendmail-send-it, at the end of (apply
'call-process-region ...), change

	(if (null mail-interactive) '("-oem" "-odb"))

to

	(if (null mail-interactive) '("-oem" "-odb") '("-v"))
