17 .SH DESCRIPTION
18 The mlmmj-receive binary is the one specified in the mailserver configuration
19 file (aliases file), which writes the mail to the <listdir>/incoming directory
20 and invokes mlmmj-process unless the \fB\-P\fR option is specified. On systems
21 using mailservers supporting the \fB/etc/aliases\fR file, a line to activate
22 an mlmmj managed mailinglist would look like this:
23 .LP
24 list: "|/usr/bin/mlmmj-receive -L /var/spool/mlmmj/list/"
25
26 It's very important to specify the full path to the binary, or the mailinglist
27 will not function.
28
29 When the \fB\-F\fR option is used, it will not fork in the background. The
30 reason it forks is that if delivery of a mail takes longer time than the mail
31 server will allow a command to be idle before presumed dead, the mail server
32 would kill it.
