System name: tailgunner
Type and version: KN01 7.3P
Display type: PMAX-MFB
What were you trying to do?
Send mail using mhmail taking input from stdin. I did:
mhmail username
blah
blah
^D (ie. control D)
What's wrong:
Ctrl-D does not send the mail and give me back the athena prompt.
It just hangs forever until I hit ctrl-C which terminates mhmail.
What should have happened:
It should have sent the mail message to the specified username
taking the input from stdin, and then terminates the mhmail program
and give me back the prompt. It works on the VAX stations, why not
on the DEC stations?
