Adding information to a specific message in your mailbox
To add information to a message in your mailbox, enter the e subcommand or the v subcommand, followed by the message number.
At the mailbox prompt, you can use either the e subcommand or the v subcommand as shown in the following examples:
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
e 13 |
To add a note to message 13 using the e editor
(or whatever editor is defined in the .mailrc file). |
v 15 |
To add a note to message 15 using the vi editor
(or whatever editor is defined in the .mailrc file). |
If you do not specify a message number, the mail command activates the editor using the current message. When you leave the editor, you return to the mailbox prompt to continue processing the messages in the mailbox.
