I've just installed exim and heirloom-mailx on a test vm to confirm my
suspicions.
mailx does give the prompt back - but because a delivery report was
requested, and exim sends it to the screen rather than emailing it,
the prompt disappears in the noise (my exim config isn't correct, so
the mail goes nowhere, but that doesn't matter for the example). The
prompt comes back after the first 2 lines of the delivery report:
