Description Ian Smith 2002-09-17 12:41:43 UTC
The Gentoo mailx - 8.1.1 - does not utilize the REPLYTO environment variable. 
This prevents me from sending external email from the command line as replies
need to be sent to a POP server rather than the originating address.

Debian Woody uses 8.1.2, which does respect REPLYTO, along with several extra
variables.

TIA.
