RMAIL(8)                                                              RMAIL(8)



NAME
       rmail - handle remote mail(1,8) received via uucp

SYNOPSIS
       rmail [-D domain] [-T] user ...

DESCRIPTION
       Rmail   interprets  incoming  mail(1,8)  received  via  uucp(1),  collapsing
       ``From'' lines in(1,8) the form generated by  mail.local(8)  into  a  single
       line of the form ``return-path!sender'', and passing the processed mail(1,8)
       on to sendmail(1,8)(8).

       Rmail is explicitly designed for use with uucp and sendmail.

   Flags
       -D     Use the specified  domain  instead  of  the  default  domain  of
              ``UUCP''.

       -T     Turn on debugging.

SEE ALSO

HISTORY
       The rmail program appeared in(1,8) 4.2BSD.

BUGS
       Rmail should not reside in(1,8) /bin.
