view man/rmail.8 @ 276:1abc1faeb45d
for -t cmdline args are now added to the rcpt list instead of substracted
Please read the diff and the section about -t in man/masqmail.8.
Masqmail's behavior had been like the one of exim/smail, now it's
similar to postfix.
Masqmail does it now the most simple way, regarding the code.
Also, addr args are always recipients, -t does not change their meaning.
-t makes the addrs from rcpt hdrs, rcpt addrs too.
It would have been logical too, to ignore the cmdline args,
in the sense of ``headers *instead of* args'' but none of the
popular MTAs does it that way and it would have been a bit more
complicated in the code.
Anyway, this is a corner-case that should better be avoided completely.

1 .TH rmail 8 2010-07-23 masqmail-0.3.0 "Maintenance Commands"
3 .SH NAME
4 rmail \- handle remote mail received via uucp
7 .SH SYNOPSIS
8 \fB/usr/sbin/rmail \fIrecipient ...\fR
11 .SH DESCRIPTION
13 Rmail is a wrapper around masqmail.
14 It reads a mail message on standard input and passes it to masqmail's standard input.
15 Rmail only removes the first line from the input and constructs the return path from it.
17 Such a first line:
19 From user Wed Jan 9 12:43:35 1985 remote from host Date: 9 Jan 1985 8:39 EST
21 would generate this call to masqmail:
23 masqmail \-i \-f user@host \-\- bob@example.org
25 (If ``bob@example.org'' was the argument to the rmail call.))
