mailpost

MAILPOST(1)						      General Commands Manual						       MAILPOST(1)

NAME

       mailpost - feed an email message into a news group

SYNOPSIS

       mailpost [ -r addr ] [ -f addr ] [ -a addr ] [ -d distribution ] [ -m mailing-list ] [ -b database ] newsgroups

DESCRIPTION

       The mailpost program reads a properly formatted email message from stdin and feeds it to inews for posting to a news server. Before feeding
       the article to inews it checks that the article has not been seen before, and it changes some headers (cleans some address headers  up  and
       puts ``X-'' in front of unknown headers).

       If the article has been seen before (mailpost records the message-id of all articles is handles), the the article will be silently dropped.
       Other errors will cause the article to be mailed to the newsmaster.

       Normally mailpost is run by sendmail via an alias entry:

	      local-mail-wreck-bikes: "|<PREFIX specified with --prefix at configure>/bin/mailpost
		       -d local local.mail.rec.bicycles.racing"

       newsgroups cannot be multiple groups.  Only one newsgroup name is allowed.

OPTIONS

       -r     If the ``-r'' flag is used the program will use the given address as the Path header, if no other value can be determined.

       -f     The ``-f'' flag is a synonym for the ``-r'' flag.

       -a     If the ``-a'' flag is used the value given is added to the article as an Approved header.

       -d     If the ``-d'' flag is used the value given is added to the article as a Distribution header.

       -m     If the ``-m'' flag is used the value given is added to the articles in a Mailing-List  header,  if  a  Mailing-List  header  doesn't
	      already exist.

       -b     IF  the ``-b'' flag is used, then it defines the location of the database used to store the message ids of articles sent on. This is
	      to prevent articles looping around if a news to mail gateway sends them back here. This option  may  be  required  if  the  mailpost
	      process doesn't have write access to the news tmp directory (the value of pathtmp in inn.conf(5).
