emacs 18.51, sun3, sun OS 4.0, running sendmail. when sending mail if To: field has multiple aliases, then they won't be expanded. eg. .mailrc has alias foo foo@whereever.edu alias bar bar@whereever.com and the To field is foo, bar bar will not be expanded. wish list: it would be nice if (1) mail from you was summarized with the To: field instead of the from field. much more useful for outgoing mail. (2) there were some way to sort mail, say by date/time. this might be done by putting a normalized timestamp at the beginning and then using sort-page. i'd even accept sorting by time of conversion to Babel format, though it would be nicer if it read the header for the Date: field. (3) or to generalize these two - let you sort a specific rmail file by some field (such as user, time, date) (4) it would be very nice if ^c^y didn't indent everything by 3 spaces but instead put in ">" like the rest of the world does. mh-rmail does this so you should in theory be able to swipe the code. Of coure the most useful way of doing this would be to add an optional argument to indent-rigidly that provided the indenting character. The default being space. This would be the most general way of doing it and would be useful to other modes (eg. comment out a region of TeX code with (indent-rigidly start end "%") thanks -- Michael DeCorte // (315)265-2439 // P.O.
