Package: mailx
Version: 8.1-4
The `mailx' command can be made to lock up by ensuring that it twice
gets SIGPIPE/EPIPE when writing to a pager. Furthermore, once this
has happened it ignores ^C. ^Z followed by `kill' is required to
escape.
This is almost certainly due to SysV vs. POSIX vs. BSD signal
handling.
A session log showing how to reproduce the problem, followed by
environment and terminal details, is below.

Below is a bug report I submitted a while ago. This bug makes mailx
practically unuseable. It should be fixed quickly.
Unfortunately, Carl Streeter replaced our working mailx 5.3b with a
non-working 8.1 and has now apparently left the project.
I've found that the bug happens even if you set the PAGER to `cat'.
It seems to fail to notice the exit of the pager the second time.
Ian.
