Replace is DOS-only.  There are Linux scripting tools that allow scripts to do
a replace-like action (AWK, I think).  (I don't use them [yet]).  FMail has a
post tool, beit either Windows or Linux.

There is some allowance for fixing the 'bug'.  It doesn't have to be done
yesterday, IMHO.

Cheers,
Paul.
