annotate man/rmail.8 @ 259:f4117fd5a163
made default mode sensible
Until now in case no mode was specified, a message would have been read
from stdin but then it would fail because no recipients had been given
on the cmd line. (This had been useful only if -t was given.) Now in
case of no mode being specified neither address arguments or -t is given
then the version message is printed, otherwise mode accept is entered
(as until yet).

meillo@98 | 11 .SH DESCRIPTION |
meillo@98 | 12 |
meillo@98 | 13 Rmail is a wrapper around masqmail. |
meillo@98 | 14 It reads a mail message on standard input and passes it to masqmail's standard input. |
meillo@98 | 15 Rmail only removes the first line from the input and constructs the return path from it. |
meillo@98 | 16 |
meillo@98 | 17 Such a first line: |
meillo@98 | 18 |
meillo@98 | 19 From user Wed Jan 9 12:43:35 1985 remote from host Date: 9 Jan 1985 8:39 EST |
meillo@98 | 20 |

meillo@98 | 22 |
meillo@100 | 23 masqmail \-i \-f user@host \-\- bob@example.org |
meillo@98 | 24 |
meillo@98 | 25 (If ``bob@example.org'' was the argument to the rmail call.)) |
