On the mailx man page, under "Examples" and "Getting Started" is the following:
"If, while you are composing the message you decide that you do not wish to send it after all, you can abort the letter with a RUBOUT. Typing a single RUBOUT causes mailx to print `(Interrupt -- one more to kill letter)'. Typing a second RUBOUT causes mailx to save your partial letter on the file `dead.letter' in your home directory and abort the letter." Also, under "Binary Options", is the following: "*save *When the user aborts a message with two RUBOUT (interrupt characters) mailx copies the partial letter to the file 'dead.letter' in the home directory. This option is set by default." Forgive my ignorance, but I cannot get this RUBOUT feature to work? I Googled this and sources suggest the "Delete" key, but that doesn't work. I also tried the "Backspace" key without success. Thanks in advance for your help.
