Type and version: KN02ba 7.4G
Display type: PMAGB-BA
What were you trying to do?
use note, pers, mbox, host, type, path function escapes
in a MH format file
What's wrong:
"mbox" always returns the same thing as "friendly";
"type" always returns 0;
all the others always return empty string.
What should have happened:
The mail address should be parsed and meaningful (?)
information retrieved from it.
Entries which are hopeless to parse from the address (I think
"type" falls in this cathegory) should be punted from the
manpage [and the program].
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
