`grep -i prefix *` on the 4.3-Tahoe, 4.3BSD, and SVR3.2 mailx source
finds nothing obviously related.  Transmit() in collect.c in 4.3Tahoe
and SVR3.2 mailx simply putc('\t'), without checking anything for
permission.

The easiest work around is probably to build a vi macro.  One generally
needs to edit a reply to remove the zillion mail headers
