pycmail

pycmail(1)						      General Commands Manual							pycmail(1)

NAME

       pycmail - mail sorter

SYNOPSIS

       pycmail [-d debuglevel] [-t] [-c conffile] [file1 file2 file3 ...]

DESCRIPTION

       pycmail is a mail sorter similar to procmail, written in python, using python syntax for mail delivery.

OPTIONS

       file1  file2 ...  read mails from file1 file2 ... instead of from stdin (useful for mail postprocessing)

       -d level, --debuglevel level
	      set debuglevel to level.

       -t     testing mode. No mail delivery will be done. Use in conjuction with -d

       -c conffile, --config=conffile
	      use file conffile as a user configuration file (instead of ~/.pycmailrc )

       -D define
	      add  define to the DEFINES list (this can be tested later in the .pycmailrc to modify the behaviour).  Can be repeated several times
	      to add more strings.

USAGE

       pycmail should be invoked automatically from the .forward file when mail arrives.

       Default debuglevel is 0, which means pycmail tries to deliver mail in almost foolproof way: if there is any  error  in  ~/.pycmailrc  file,
       mail will be delivered to the default mailbox (such as /var/spool/mail/USERNAME ).

       If  the	debuglevel  is 1, any error in ~/.pycmailrc file will be printed, resulting in bounced mail (but pycmail will still try to deliver
       the mail to default mailbox).

       Higher debuglevels will print more information about the actual mail processing. The bigger the debuglevel, the more  detailed  information
       is printed.

       To test your configuration, do something like this:
       formail -s pycmail -d 2 -t < your_test_mailbox_file
