@ page 593 line 22848-22852 section mailx objection [gwc mailx +file]
Problem:
Defect code : 1. Error
POSIX.2 interpretation #122 identified a correction to be made in
the revision, but the change has not been made (despite being listed
in the mailx change history as having been addressed).
Action:
Replace the paragraph with the following text, which is the text
suggested by the submitter of POSIX.2 interp #122 but with minor
editorial changes:
File names, where expected, shall be subjected to the following
transformations, in sequence:
If the filename begins with an unquoted plus sign, and the
folder variable is defined (see the folder variable), the
plus sign shall be replaced by the value of the folder
variable followed by a slash. If the folder variable is unset
or is set to null, the filename shall be unchanged.
Shell word expansions shall be applied to the filename (see
Section 2.6 (on page 36)). If more than a single pathname
results from this expansion and the command is expecting one
file, the effects are unspecified.
