Hello Chih-Hsuan, Perry, all.

Thank you, great! |another MacPorts commiter pointed out that it should be better to call |the package s-mailx [2]. From https://www.sdaoden.eu/code.html, |s-mailx appears to be the current name, while s-nail is also used many |times. Is the current official name for this project s-mailx or |s-nail? I will appreciate any input. First of all this is all your thing. You can use the VAL_SID= and VAL_MAILX= make flags to adjust it the way you like, the default is VAL_SID=s- and VAL_MAILX=nail, but in use is also VAL_SID= VAL_MAILX=mailx, for example. We are a POSIX mailx. This software in particular i will call s-nail until i reach version 15.0, hopefully by the end of 2020. Then i will rename it to s-mailx and switch to semantic versioning. The reason is that there will be a major rewrite of the MIME and I/O layer, and a rework of the network code. This is v15, then, and it will no longer have IMAP support for a while. But allow many things which are currently impossible to do, for example you will be able to use -t and feed in a complete MIME message. You can well name it mailx, it can do that. But we are still s-nail for a while. Thank you!
