If you are not prompted by the mailer to enter the encryption key, you do not have
[encode] entered as
the first 8 characters of the line. Similarly,
[clear] should also be entered as the first 7 characters of
the line to indicate the end of encryption.
On the other end, the recipients of this mail (should be users of the
elm program) will be prompted with
the following message to enter the decryption key:
Enter decryption key:
@
If the decryption key is correct, the program will then decrypt the mail and display each line in readable
format. The same message will be displayed in an encrypted form if the decryption key is incorrect.
Note: Currently decryption is not supported to
pipe
or print encrypted mails.
Mail Archive
This feature is the ability to specify the message content that needs to be archived (assuming copy is
enabled).
To indicate the last line of the message to be archived, you need to have either the [nosave] or
[no save]
key line in the body of your message.
The saved mail will not contain the message following the
[nosave] or [no save] key line. However,
the outgoing mail will contain all the messages except the key line.
Header Menu
The Header Menu is invoked with the Send Menu
h command. It allows you to add, change, and delete a
set of common header entries in your message. In general, if an item is empty, it is not included in the
message.
The commands are:
Return Return to Send Menu.
!command Shell. Execute command with the shell defined by the shell string variable.
a Action: header. Enter any string. If this entry is present in a received message,
elm displays an A in the Permanent Status column of the Message Index.
b Bcc: header. Enter a list of aliases and actual addresses. Aliases are expanded
and shown as addresses and user names.
c Cc: header. Enter a list of aliases and actual addresses. Aliases are expanded and
shown as addresses and user names.
d Domainize. Convert non-Internet addresses to Internet format. The UUCP ! for-
mat (host .domain!user) becomes the Internet @ format (user @host
.domain). If
.domain is omitted, it defaults to .uucp.
e Expires: header. Enter any numeric value from 1 to 56 (8 weeks). If this entry
is present in a received message, elm displays an E in the Variable Status column
of the Message Index when the computed date has passed.
i In-Reply-To: header. Enter a string.
n Precedence: header. Enter a precedence name. If the precedences string
variable is set and nonnull, the name must be one defined by the variable. If the
name is associated with a priority, and the Priority: header is null, the priority
value is inserted in the Priority: header. If precedences is null or not set,
you can enter any value.
If the precedence name matches one defined in the
sendmail configuration file
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf, the transmission priority is modified accordingly. If
there is no match, the priority is not changed.
p Priority: header. Enter a string. If this entry is present in a received message,
elm displays a U in the Permanent Status column of the Message Index
r Reply-To: header. Enter a personal alias or a single address. If it is present,
elm and other mailers use this header instead of the From: header when choosing
the address for a reply (Message Menu r (reply) command).
s Subject: header. Enter a string.
