That's what the test output below confirms...

I'm only using Gnu/Linux PCs.

This is the comparative test I just have done:

$ Comparing lynx.cfg: looking for exim or sendmail lines  in both cfg files; 
first the old one, v2.8.4 under Sarge Debian, 
then the new one, v2.8.5 on Etch Debian. 
If someone see the difference I will appreciate he should tell me what it is
and why does the Sarge Lynx works with that same config using postfix or
exim,
and Etch doesn't works using exim?
(starfish = Debian Sarge machine)

$ grep -i exim lynx.cfg_starfish 
No any exim line


$ grep -i exim /etc/lynx.cfg
Idem no any exim line


$ grep -i sendmail lynx.cfg_starfish 
# The mail path and flags normally are defined for sendmail (or submit

#SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/sbin/sendmail

#SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/lib/sendmail

# Please read sendmail.txt in the LYNX_W32.ZIP distribution

#SYSTEM_MAIL:sendmail -f address@hidden -h my.host -r my.smtp.mailer -m SMTP


$ grep -i sendmail /etc/lynx.cfg
# The mail path and flags normally are defined for sendmail (or submit

#SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/sbin/sendmail

#SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/lib/sendmail

# Please read sendmail.txt in the LYNX_W32.ZIP distribution

#SYSTEM_MAIL:sendmail -f address@hidden -h my.host -r my.smtp.mailer -m SMTP
