NAME

6       rcvdist - asynchronously redistribute new mail
7

SYNOPSIS

9       /usr/libexec/nmh/rcvdist [-form formfile] [switches for postproc]
10            address1 ...  [-version] [-help]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       The rcvdist program will accept a message on  its  standard  input  and
14       resend  a  copy  of  this message to all of the addresses listed on its
15       command line.
16
17       When a message is redistributed with the rcvdist command, the format of
18       the Resent-xxx header fields is controlled by the forms files “rcvdist‐
19       comps”.  If a file named “rcvdistcomps” exists in the user's nmh direc‐
20       tory,  it  will be used instead of the default one.  You may specify an
21       alternate forms file with the switch -form formfile.
22
23       The “rcvdistcomps” file uses the format string  facility  described  in
24       mh-format(5).  In addition to the standard format escapes, rcvdist also
25       recognizes the following additional component escape:

29
30       By default, rcvdist uses the program post to do the actual delivery  of
31       the message, although this can be changed by defining the postproc pro‐
32       file component.
