annotate tests/localhost-stdin/README @ 421:f37384470855

Changed lockdir to /var/lock/masqmail; Create lockdir and piddir on startup. Moved the lockdir out of the spool dir. (When /var/lock is a ramdisk we do well to have the lock files there.) Added the new configure option --with-lockdir to change that location. Nontheless, if we run_as_user, then lock files are always stored in the spool dir directly. Instead of installing the lockdir and piddir at installation time, we create them on startup time now if they are missing. This is necessary if lockdir or piddir are a tmpfs.

meillo@63 2 ---------------
meillo@0 3
meillo@63 4 Three mails are sent, using different options, to <you@localhost>.
meillo@0 5 local.sh sends mail accepted from stdin and sends them to a fake local
meillo@0 6 mailbox, using your login name. If it works, there should be a file
meillo@0 7 named with your login name with the mails. You can look at it with cat
meillo@0 8 or less, or with an ordinary mail program.
meillo@0 9
meillo@0 10 Two log files, masqmail.log and debug.log will also be created within
meillo@0 11 this directory. They may give some information if anything went wrong.
meillo@0 12
meillo@63 13 Run them from within this directory, preferably NOT as root, but you
meillo@63 14 got to have write permission for this directory.
