NAME
       qmail-newmrh - prepare morercpthosts for qmail-smtpd

SYNOPSIS
       qmail-newmrh

DESCRIPTION
       qmail-newmrh  reads  the instructions in /var/lib/qmail/control/morercpthosts and writes them into /var/lib/qmail/control/morercpthosts.cdb
       in a binary format suited for quick access by qmail-smtpd.

       If there is a problem with control/morercpthosts, qmail-newmrh complains and leaves control/morercpthosts.cdb alone.

       qmail-newmrh ensures that control/morercpthosts.cdb is updated atomically, so qmail-smtpd never has to wait  for  qmail-newmrh  to  finish.
       However, qmail-newmrh makes no attempt to protect against two simultaneous updates of control/morercpthosts.cdb.

       The binary control/morercpthosts.cdb format is portable across machines.
