.TH mlmmj-receive "1" "September 2004" mlmmj-receive .SH NAME mlmmj-receive \- receive mails for an mlmmj managed mailinglist .SH SYNOPSIS .B mlmmj-receive \fI\-L /path/to/listdir \fR[\fI\-h\fR] [\fI\-V\fR] [\fI\-P\fR] [\fI\-F\fR] .HP \fB\-h\fR: This help .HP \fB\-F\fR: Don't fork in the background (debugging only) .HP \fB\-L\fR: Full path to list directory .HP \fB\-P\fR: Don't execute mlmmj-process (debugging only) .HP \fB\-V\fR: Print version .SH DESCRIPTION The mlmmj-receive binary is the one specified in the mailserver configuration file (aliases file), which writes the mail to the <listdir>/incoming directory and invokes mlmmj-process unless the \fB\-P\fR option is specified. On systems using mailservers supporting the \fB/etc/aliases\fR file, a line to activate an mlmmj managed mailinglist would look like this: .LP list: "|/usr/bin/mlmmj-receive \-L /var/spool/mlmmj/list/" It's very important to specify the full path to the binary, or the mailinglist will not function. When the \fB\-F\fR option is used, it will not fork in the background. The reason it forks is that if delivery of a mail takes longer time than the mail server will allow a command to be idle before presumed dead, the mail server would kill it. .SH "SEE ALSO" mlmmj-process(1) .SH AUTHORS This manual page was written by the following persons: .HP S\[/o]ren Boll Overgaard <boll@debian.org> (based on html2man output) .HP Mads Martin J\[/o]rgensen <mmj@mmj.dk>
