Is there any way to use MUSH as the mailer and the poster for news? I am using rn on a sun running UNIX... If i set mailer=mush whenever I do a reply it says "no mail for depeche". -- S.

Do we need an "Intro to comp.mail.mush" with FAQ? :-) In article <1476@quiche.cs.mcgill.ca> depeche@quiche.cs.mcgill.ca (Sam Alan EZUST) writes: } } Is there any way to use MUSH as the mailer and the poster for news? } I am using rn on a sun running UNIX... Here comes the Rnmush script again. Just use setenv MAILPOSTER "Rnmush -h" or the /bin/sh equivalent MAILPOSTER="Rnmush -h; export MAILPOSTER. This updated release of the script fixes a minor bug with temp file creation and contains some (one?) hints for SysV conversion. It still can't be used for posting; I have a summary of the changes needed to turn this into a script for posting, but it doesn't seem useful enough to bother (and it would only work at sites with a sendmail-like MTA). I might mention as a teaser that the next release of mush has its own -h flag, so use of this script will become optional .... #! /bin/sh - # Rnmush -- script to use mush for Rnmail # # Based on Larry Wall's Rnmail # # syntax: Rnmush -h headerfile [oldart] or # Rnmush destination-list or just # Rnmush # # This script creates two other scripts: # 1) sh script, which takes care of merging the rn header file with # mush's editor temp file and then calls the regular visual editor; # 2) mush script, fed via "mush -source", which sets up some environment # and arranges for the first script to be used as the visual editor. # system configuration # your organization name orgname="/usr/lib/news/organization" mush=mush defeditor=/usr/ucb/vi test=/bin/test sed=sed echo=echo cat=cat rm=/bin/rm chmod=chmod # how to echo without a newline n="-n" c="" dotdir=${DOTDIR-${HOME-$LOGDIR}} tmpart=$dotdir/.letter start=$dotdir/.rnmush$$ preedit=$dotdir/.rnvis$$ locked=$dotdir/.rnvlk$$ # Remove traps of 21 22 23 for SysV trap "$rm -f $start $preedit $locked; exit 1" 1 2 3 13 15 21 22 23 # some initialization for the mush script visual=${VISUAL-${EDITOR-$defeditor}} orgname=${ORGANIZATION-$orgname} case $orgname in /*) orgname=`$cat $orgname` ;; esac mailrecord=${MAILRECORD+record="${MAILRECORD}"} # Use this line for mush 6.4 #$echo set verify autoedit $mailrecord \; unset edit_hdrs > $start # Change to this line for mush 6.5 $echo set edit_hdrs verify autoedit $mailrecord > $start headerfile="" case $# in 0) ;; *) case $1 in -h) headerfile="$2" case $# in 3) oldart=$3 ;; 1) shift ;; esac ;; esac ;; esac subject="" case $headerfile in '') case $# in 0) $echo $n "To: $c" read to ;; *) to="$*" ;; esac $echo $n "Subject: $c" subject="-s `read subject; echo '\"'$subject'\"'`" $echo $n "$c" > $tmpart $echo my_hdr Organization: "$orgname" >> $start $cat <<EOStrip > $preedit if $test ! -f $locked ; then $cat $tmpart >> \$1 $echo "" > $locked fi $visual \$1 EOStrip ;; *) # Handle wrapped To: lines to=`$sed -n -e '1,/^$/ { /^To:/,/^[A-Za-z]/ { s/^To: \(.*\)/\1/p /^[^A-Za-z]/p } }' < $headerfile | tr '\012' ' '` # Use this section for mush 6.4 # $echo unset ask asksub askcc >> $start # $sed '1,/^$/d' < $headerfile > $tmpart # subject="-s \"`$sed -e '/^Subject:/p' -e '/.*/d' < $headerfile \ # | $sed 's/^Subject: //'`\"" # $sed -e '1,/^$/p' -e '/.*/d' < $headerfile \ # | $sed -e '/^To:/d' -e '/^Subject:/d' -e '/^$/d' -e 's/^/my_hdr /' \ # >> $start # $cat <<EOStrip > $preedit #if $test ! -f $locked ; then #$cat < $tmpart > \$1 #$echo "" > $locked #fi #$visual \$1 #EOStrip # # Change to this new section for mush 6.5 # $echo $n "$c" > $tmpart $cat <<'EOStart' >> $start if $?ask unset ask endif if $?asksub unset asksub endif if $?askcc unset askcc endif EOStart # # The code below relies on mush's placement of the To: and Subject: # headers.
