lmail(ADMN)
lmail --
handle local mail delivery from sendmail
Syntax
lmail user ...
Description
lmail interprets incoming mail received from
sendmail(ADMN)
and delivers it to the specified user on the local
machine. It locks the user's mailbox using the
mailx(C)
locking mechanism.
Before delivering mail, lmail reads the first line in the user's
mailbox. If the first line begins with the string ``Forward to '',
lmail forwards the mail to the address following the ``Forward to ''
string instead of putting the mail in the user's mailbox. The
address must be in a format consistent with those described in
mailaddr(ADMN).
