Apparently, countmail relies on from, but this is not on my system,
so there might be a dependency missing in the package description.

~ $ sh -x /usr/games/countmail
+ + wc -l
from
/usr/games/countmail: 1: from: not found
+ set -- 0
+ v=0
+ set --
+ g=0
+ v=0000

+ v=0

+ p=S
+ set ZERO
+ echo ZERO!

ZERO MAIL MESSAGES!

HAHAHAHAHA!
