If you bothered to read the man entry of mail, or the *manual*
you would find your entry under *set page*. This may be put in your
.mailrc file. Actually get a copy of elm or mush, or even mailbbs,
as SCO's version of mail is terrible.
P.S. Please post a follow-up and distribution line to your posting.
It does make life simpler. Since it is by default world, and you
asked the question world wide, I left it that way.
