{bb} Re: E-mail Acknowledgements with .forward

[Shane Presley <shane.presley@gmail.com>]

Forgot to mention that I have modified my bb-mailack.sh script to have
my variables:

BBUSER="bb"
BBHOME="/opt/bb/bb"; export BBHOME
MAILFILE="/var/spool/mail/$BBUSER"
REPLYPFX="[RrAa][EeWw]:"
DELAY=120
ACK="Y"         # Set to Y if you want a confirmation message by default
