/usr/ucb/mail uses Status.  Precedence is used by some mailers to
determine the order in which they send things, but I don't think it is
defined anywhere.

There are none, by definition.  Err, that defintion has been changed.
The only ones that should be functional are the ones that are found in
the PEM RFC's (1113-1115).  I know of no other common, functional
ones.  They usually just add information useful later on....
