mark -qo (without argument) obsolete Its behavior (online detect and send over the available route) is included in -q. In the -qo case no local mail would be sent, but why would be not want to do so? We might use -qo (without arg) for something more useful in the future.

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.))
