rcvdist

NAME

rcvdist - asynchronously receive and distribute new email

SYNOPSIS

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: By default, rcvdist uses the post program to deliver the message, although this can be changed by defining the postproc profile component.
