14 Rcvstore incorporates a message from the standard input into an nmh
15 folder. This command is typically used in conjunction with mail fil‐
16 tering programs such as slocal and procmail, to filter your mail into
17 different folders.
18 You may specify which folder to use with +folder. If no folder is
20 specified, rcvstore will use the folder given by a non-empty “Inbox:”
21 entry in the user's profile, else it will use the folder named “inbox”.
22 If the switch -create is given (it is the default) and if the specified
24 (or default) folder does not exist, then it will be created. You may
25 disable this with the -nocreate option. In this case rcvstore will
26 exit if the specified folder does not exist.
27 When the new message is incorporated into the folder, it is assigned
29 the next highest number for that folder.
30 Rcvstore will incorporate anything except zero length messages into the
32 user's nmh folder. It will not change the message in any way.
33 If the user's profile contains a “Msg-Protect: nnn” entry, it will be
35 used as the protection on the newly created message, otherwise the nmh
36 default of 0644 will be used. For all subsequent operations on this
37 message, this initially assigned protection will be preserved.
38 If the switch -unseen is given (it is on by default), and if the pro‐
40 file entry “Unseen-Sequence” is present and non-empty, then rcvstore
41 will add the newly incorporated message to each sequence named by this
42 profile entry. You may use the switch -nounseen to disable this.
43 These sequences will not be zero'ed by rcvstore prior to adding the new
44 message.
45 Furthermore, the incoming message may be added to additional sequences
47 as they arrive by the use of the -sequence switch. As with the com‐
48 mands pick and mark, you may also use the switches -zero and -nozero to
49 specify whether to zero old sequences or not. Similarly, use of the
50 -public and -nopublic switches may be used to force these sequences to
51 be public or private sequences.

78 No context changes will be attempted, with the exception of sequence
79 manipulation.
80
83 If you use the “Unseen-Sequence” profile entry, rcvstore could try to
84 update the context while another nmh process is also trying to do so.
85 This can cause the context to become corrupted. To avoid this, do not
86 use rcvstore if you use the “Unseen-Sequence” profile entry.
