can you share that bit of mh-format magic? i'm sure it would work more
cleanly than my current technique of running sed on the draft. :-)
Easy peasy:
%<{from}%?(getenv MH_FROM)%|%(void(localmbox))%>%(void(width))%(putaddr
From: )
The {from} is there in case I want to use -from from the comp command line.
Obviously the environment variable is MH_FROM. And I have aliases like this:
one more question about this: how can i cause a format entry to
evaluate to nothing at all, not even a newline?
i'd like to do something similar to your example for Reply-to, for
instance (i have other uses in mind as well). i've tried both this:
%<(getenv MH_REPLYTO)%(void(width))%(putaddr Reply-to: )%|%>
and this:
%<(getenv MH_REPLYTO)%<(nonnull)%(void(width))%(putaddr Reply-to: )%>%>
but neither of these attempts work -- i always get at least a blank line:
