--- Comment #3 from Andrew Aitchison <exim@???> ---
I have a patch ready to submit, but I am not sure what to call the utility.
My working name is exim_msgdate but it should really have "msgid" in it.
eximmsgiddate has doubled letters in the wrong places.
Existing tools start with
exi_ (exim_checkaccess exim_dbmbuild exim_dumpdb exim_fixdb exim_lock
exim_msgdate eximstats exim_tidydb)
exi (exicyclog exigrep exinext exipick exiqgrep exiqsumm exiwhat)
or exim (eximstats)
so perhaps exi_msgid_date ?


----------------------------


I have had to use the new (to exim build) feature ${parameter:-word} in the
make shell script of src/OS/Makefile-Base.
What shells are used inside make on the various platforms ?

set BASE_62=36
echo BASE_62 | sed -e "s?BASE_62?${BASE_62:-62}?"
gives 36 on the shells I've tested (bash, dash = sh, ksh on Ubuntu 22:10 and
bash and sh on RedHat 6!) but these are modern, posix-type shells.

Can anyone test this on the other platforms on the build farm ?
Use

Or should I just submit the patch as it is ?
