in reply to Using Mailx

The security-minded answer is "don't ever use mailx". It's a big security hole waiting to happen since you cannot disable tilde escaping.

    Tilde escaping is disabled as soon as mailx gets input from a "non tty". So if you pipe the input into mailx, tilde escaping should be off.
