readmail(1)						      General Commands Manual						       readmail(1)

NAME

       readmail - read mail from a mail folder or incoming mailbox

SYNOPSIS

       folder] [number-list|pattern]

DESCRIPTION

       The program displays messages from your incoming mailbox or a specified mail folder.

       Within the mail system (see elm(1) with no operands and optionally the or option, displays the appropriate headers and the body of the cur-
       rent message.

       With the number-list operand and no options, displays the corresponding messages and a summary of the headers from your incoming mailbox.

       With the pattern operand and no options, displays the first message that matches the pattern and a summary of the headers from your  incom-
       ing mailbox.

   Options
       supports the following options.

	      Print all messages that match
			     pattern.  If no pattern was specified, this option is ignored.

	      Use file	     folder for the operations instead of the incoming mailbox.

	      Include the entire header of the matched message or messages
			     when displaying their text.  The default is to display the and lines only.

	      Exclude all headers.

	      Put form feeds (
			     between message headers.  This is useful when printing sets of messages.

   Operands
       supports the following operands.

	      number-list    A	blank-separated  list of the ordinal locations of messages in the mail file (i.e., their "message numbers"), up to
			     25 at a time.  The character means the last message in the mail file.  Similarly, represents  every  message  in  the
			     file (i.e.,

			     The message numbers are sorted into ascending order.  Thus, produces the same output as

	      pattern	     A	string that is present in one of the messages.	This pattern can be typed in directly (no quotes) if the words are
			     separated by a single space in the actual message.  The pattern matching is case sensitive, so and  are  not  equiva-
			     lent.  Leading digits (on the first word) are not permitted; however, you can precede them with a space and quote the
			     entire string, if the space occurs in the message, as in .

EXAMPLES

       If you are using to reply to a message from within the mail system, you can insert the text of the current message with the command:

       If you define an alias similar to:

       you can use it with a program such to peruse mail as it arrives, without needing to start a mail system (see newmail(1)).
