Package: mailx Version: 8.1-11 The subject says it all (Debian 1.1 beta). An example session is: % /usr/bin/mail foo Subject: hello (Interrupt -- one more to kill letter) zsh: quit mail foo Some explanations: on the Subject line, C-c has no effect. And in the message, after the (Interrupt ...... letter), I had to hit C-\ to get out of mail. Yves.
