} Not that I know of.  I just had to add such an option to our version of ucb
} Mail in IRIX.  I don't think you can do it at all with standard ucb Mail.

You can't do it "right", but you can do it:

----------------------------------------
#! /bin/sh
# "mail" front-end for Reply-To: headers
echo -n "Subject: "
read subject
# Note imbedded return in the "" text
mail -s "$subject
Reply-To: a_preferred_return_address" $*
----------------------------------------

I won't go to the work of figuring out how to test for "set ask" before
prompting for the subject, nor how to parse a -s option to the script,
but it can be done.

You still ought to get Mush. ;-)

Just the other mush hacker,
