NAME

       rmail - handle remote mail received via uucp

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/rmail recipient ...

DESCRIPTION

       Rmail  is  a  wrapper  around  masqmail.   It  reads  a  mail  message on standard input and passes it to
       masqmail's standard input.  Rmail only removes the first line from the input and  constructs  the  return
       path from it.

       Such a first line:

       From user Wed Jan  9 12:43:35 1985 remote from host Date: 9 Jan 1985   8:39 EST

       would generate this call to masqmail:

       masqmail -i -f user@host -- bob@example.org

       (If ``bob@example.org'' was the argument to the rmail call.))

BUGS

       Address translations from domain!user to user@domain is not done.  This rmail program is only very basic.
