[nail-devel] Command- and filename expansion

[Daniel <d.g...@rl...>]

Hi

I started using Heriloom mailx a few weeks ago and love it! I managed to find all the infos I needed for an inital setup, but there is one thing that bugs me and for which I haven't found an answer yet. On my system command or filename expansion doesn't work and I have no idea whether this is simply not supported or whether our system is misconfigured. The man page mentions filename expansion at least, so I think it should be possible. On the archive there is a thread on setting up .Xressources to have <backspace> and <del> working, but backspace at least works for me, so I think the terminal should be configured more or less correctly.  

The thing is, I'm using plenty of subfolders and keep forgetting the names, so some kind of <tab> expansion for the FOLDER command would be really handy. Then again, I'm using IMAP folders and I guess filename expansion on the IMAP namespace is an alltogether more formidable problem.

Can anyone fill me in if I'm doing something wrong please..? ;-)

Cheers,

Daniel
