Well, after watching this discussion go round and round for a couple of weeks, 
I finally sez to myself, I sez, "Well, how tough can it be?"  The answer is 
not very.  

Herewith, the diffs to the version of mailx supplied with SunOS 3.2 -- your 
line numbers may vary.  These trivial changes add a string variable called
indent_str (name chosen for compatibility with the recently-posted mush
program) -- if set, it will be prepended to every line inserted with the ~f
command.

The source for mail is a little different for the vanilla UCB mail in the 
BSD release, but the modifications ahould be equally straightforward.
