rcvdist - Man Page
asynchronously receive and distribute new email
Synopsis
/usr/libexec/nmh/rcvdist [-help] [-version] [-form formfile] [switches for postproc] address1 ...
Description
rcvdist accepts a message on its standard input and resends a copy of the message to all of the addresses listed on its command line.
The format of the Resent-xxx header fields is specified by the form file “rcvdistcomps”. If a file named “rcvdistcomps” exists in the user's nmh directory, it will be used instead of the default file. You may specify an alternate forms file with -form formfile.
The “rcvdistcomps” file uses the format string facility described in mh-format(5). In addition to the standard format escapes, rcvdist also recognizes the following component escape:
Escape | Returns | Description |
addresses | string | the addresses to distribute to |
By default, rcvdist uses the post program to deliver the message, although this can be changed by defining the postproc profile component.
Files
