Message-ID: <c8ecbaa953721d0d6a3084e7ff58450a@plan9.bell-labs.com> (raw)

When replying to a message with a message-id, upas now
adds a In-Reply-To: header containing the original
message number.  This is for people that maintain converation
threads this way.

Also, /mail/box/<username>/pipefrom replaces /bin/upassend.
If it exists, marshal pipes the prepared message to it rather
than upas/send.  In the case of replies, upas passes to it the
upas/fs directory of the message being replied to in the
env variable `replymsg'.

You can use pipefrom for a number of things; saving copies
of messages you send, making the reply address match the address
the mail was sent to, adding recipients to your filter lists...
