Here is a situation I have and hopefully someone may have a simple solution
to it. What we have here is a system with 8 different branches multiplexed
into a central Unix system. The system is using the lpr program as its
spooler. Each branch has its own dedicated printer. I want to be able to
setup each branch so that when they use the "p" command in mail, it will
print to the appropriate printer rather than the default system printer
/dev/lp. Is this a simple matter of setting an environmental variable?
