I am working with the deliver program and have -n option being used in
the following deliver.sys:

case $1 in
address)
        set -x
        SUBJECT=`grep "^Subject:" $HEADER`
        cat $HEADER $BODY | /usr/local/bin/deliver -vn tucker
        mailx -s "Re: $SUBJECT" $SENDER << XXX
Your mail regarding $SUBJECT has been forwarded to the proper person.
;;
esac

This is not using aliases as one would think -n would. As it is working, it
seems to just what -b would. Also, in the -v output below, what is the
system delivery file disabled line doing? Is this closing upon completion
of it's use?  

found system delivery file /usr/local/lib/deliver.sys
system delivery file disabled
Destinations as taken from argument list:
        tucker: Working
user delivery files disabled
missing post-user delivery file /usr/local/lib/deliver.post
As tucker, delivering to system mailbox /usr/mail/tucker
created lockfile /usr/mail/tucker.lock
locked with lockf()
unlocked with lockf()
removed lockfile /usr/mail/tucker.lock
wrote message to /usr/mail/tucker
Destinations after delivery:
        tucker: Done


Thank in advance, Kyle
