bsd-mailx

simple mail user agent

Description

bsd-mailx is the traditional simple command-line-mode mail user agent. Even if you don't use it, it may be required by other programs.

The /usr/bin/mail command provided by this package is a very simple one, and does not include many features that can be found in more advanced mail user agents.

For example bsd-mailx DOES NOT support:

- MIME (i.e. no attachments, no UTF-8 or other charsets support);

- SMTP protocol (/usr/sbin/sendmail interface only is used);

- POP3/IMAP (bsd-mailx reads local mailboxes only);

- maildir format (traditional mbox only format is supported).

If the above features are needed, please consider installing another package providing similar /usr/bin/mail interface:

- s-nail package,

- or mailutils package.
