Package: heirloom-mailx
Version: 12.5-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When sending mail using heirloom-mailx, I have been accustomed to edit
the message with ~v, at which time I may add a Cc: header line with
one or more addresses.  Since I have `askcc` set, I would see these
addresses for confirmation after editing my message.  This was the
behavior I observed up through Debian 12 (bookworm?).

However, on the current Debian 13 release (trixie), the Cc:
information that I have edited in my ~v session is discarded.
I have confirmed its loss both using `set askcc` and also by actually
sending the message and confirming the absence of a Cc: header.

My ~/.mailrc begins as follows:

```
set append dot save VISUAL=emacs EDITOR=/usr/bin/less
set askcc
set askatend
unset askbcc
unset ignoreeof
set ask
set crt=24
unset hold
set metoo
set record=$HOME/outmail
set replyall # doesn't work on cs
ignore via message-id status received
set editheaders    # s-nail

nr@phoenix [email protected] mailrus!Princeton.EDU!nr

surya!att!princeton!nr [email protected] [email protected] 
[email protected] [email protected] 
[email protected] [email protected] 
[email protected]
```

The rest of the ~/.mailrc is a long list of alias commands.


TL;DR: Since Debian 13 (trixie), heirloom-mailx no longer honors a Cc:
field added with ~v, even when `editheaders` is set.
