NAME

6       getmail_mbox - read a message from stdin and deliver to a named mboxrd-
7       format mbox file with fcntl-style locking.
8

SYNOPSIS

10       getmail_mbox [OPTION] PATH
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Deliver a mail message from standard input, to the  mboxrd-format  mbox
14       file  named  PATH.   PATH must start with a dot or a slash and must not
15       end with a slash.  fcntl-type locking is used; if your system  requires
16       another type of locking (such as flock or dotlock ), use an MDA config‐
17       ured for that style of locking instead.
18
19       getmail_mbox uses  the  SENDER  environment  variable  to  construct  a
20       Return-Path: header field and the contents of the RECIPIENT environment
21       variable to construct a Delivered-To: header field at the  top  of  the
22       message.  SENDER is also used in creating the mbox From_ line.
