NAME

       mailcompat - provide SunOS compatibility for Solaris mailbox format

DESCRIPTION

       mailcompat  is  a program to provide SunOS 4.x compatability for the Solaris mailbox format. You would typically run  mailcompat to be able
       to read mail on a workstation running SunOS 4.x when your mail server is running Solaris.

       Enabling mailcompat creates an entry in your  .forward file, if it exists.  If this file does not exist, mailcompat will create	it.   Dis-
       abling mailcompat will remove the entry from the .forward file, and if this was the only entry, will remove the entire file.

       To  execute  mailcompat, log onto the Solaris mail server and enter mailcompat on the command line. Answer the queries provided by the pro-
       gram.

USAGE

       See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of mailcompat when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2**31 bytes).
