- /usr/ucb/mail uses Status. Precedence is used by some mailers to
- determine the order in which they send things, but I don't think it is
- defined anywhere.

-
- There are none, by definition. Err, that defintion has been changed.
- The only ones that should be functional are the ones that are found in
- the PEM RFC's (1113-1115). I know of no other common, functional
- ones. They usually just add information useful later on....
