msgchk

MSGCHK(1)							     [nmh-1.5]								 MSGCHK(1)

NAME

       msgchk - check for messages

SYNOPSIS

       msgchk [-date | -nodate] [-notify all/mail/nomail ] [-nonotify all/mail/nomail ] [-host hostname] [-user username] [-sasl] [-saslmech mech-
	    anism] [-snoop] [users ... ] [-version] [-help]

DESCRIPTION

       The msgchk program checks all known mail drops for mail waiting for you.  For those drops which have mail for you, msgchk will indicate	if
       it believes that you have seen the mail in question before.

       The  -notify  type  switch  indicates under what circumstances msgchk should produce a message.	The default is -notify all which says that
       msgchk should always report the status of the users maildrop.  Other values for `type' include `mail' which says that msgchk should  report
       the  status  of	waiting mail; and, `nomail' which says that msgchk should report the status of empty maildrops.  The -nonotify type switch
       has the inverted sense, so -nonotify all directs msgchk to never report the status of maildrops.  This is useful  if  the  user	wishes	to
       check msgchk's exit status.  A non-zero exit status indicates that mail was not waiting for at least one of the indicated users.

       If msgchk produces output, then the -date switch directs msgchk to print out the last date mail was read, if this can be determined.

   Using POP
       msgchk  will  normally  check all the local mail drops, but if the option "pophost:" is set in the mts configuration file "mts.conf", or if
       the -host hostname switch is given, msgchk will query this POP service host as to the status of mail waiting.

       The default is for msgchk to assume that your account name on the POP server is the same as your current username.  To specify a  different
       username, use the `-user username' switch.

       When  using POP, you will normally need to type the password for your account on the POP server, in order to retrieve your messages.  It is
       possible to automate this process by creating a ".netrc" file containing your login account information for this POP server.  For each  POP
       server,	this  file should have a line of the following form.  Replace the words mypopserver, mylogin, and mypassword with your own account
       information.

	    machine mypopserver login mylogin password mypassword

       This ".netrc" file should be owned and readable only by you.

       For debugging purposes, there is also a switch -snoop, which will allow you to watch the POP transaction take place between you and the POP
       server.

       If  nmh	has been compiled with SASL support, the -sasl switch will enable the use of SASL authentication.  Depending on the SASL mechanism
       used, this may require an additional password prompt from the user (but the ".netrc" file  can  be  used  to  store  this  password).   The
       -saslmech switch can be used to select a particular SASL mechanism.

       If SASL authentication is successful, inc will attempt to negotiate a security layer for session encryption.  Encrypted traffic is labelled
       with `(encrypted)' and `(decrypted)' when viewing the POP transaction with the -snoop switch.
