In my .mailrc file for ucb mail I have a "set record=" statement so I can keep a log of all my outgoing mail. The problem is that this also keeps an extra log of things when I mail uuencoded files out. I don't want to remove the "set record=" for my interactive mail, but I do want to find a way to not log the file mailings. I will be doing these file mailings via a shell script, so I can use mail options or other programs to do said mailings. I tried the "-n" option on mail, just in case the man pages were a bit wrong about it supressing /usr/lib/Mail.rc or whatever, but it did not supress the reading of my .mailrc so that is not usable. Does anyone know if a way to send mail so that the "set record=" in the ".mailrc" file, or the ".mailrc" file itself, is not used for the instance of mailing a file? It cannot involve temporarily altering the ".mailrc" file since I might be using it for mail at the same time. Please e-mail answers since I cross posted this question. -- /***************************************************************************\ / Phil Howard -- KA9WGN -- phil@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu | Guns don't aim guns at \ \ Lietuva laisva -- Brivu Latviju -- Eesti vabaks | people; CRIMINALS do!! / \***************************************************************************/
