NAME

       mlmmj-receive - receive mails for an mlmmj managed mailinglist

SYNOPSIS

       mlmmj-receive -L /path/to/listdir [-h] [-V] [-P] [-F]

       -h: This help

       -F: Don't fork in the background (debugging only)

       -L: Full path to list directory

       -P: Don't execute mlmmj-process (debugging only)

       -V: Print version

DESCRIPTION

       The  mlmmj-receive  binary  is  the  one  specified  in  the mailserver configuration file
       (aliases file), which writes the mail to  the  <listdir>/incoming  directory  and  invokes
       mlmmj-process  unless  the -P option is specified. On systems using mailservers supporting
       the /etc/aliases file, a line to activate an mlmmj managed  mailinglist  would  look  like
       this:

       list: "|/usr/bin/mlmmj-receive -L /var/spool/mlmmj/list/"

       It's  very  important  to specify the full path to the binary, or the mailinglist will not
       function.

       When the -F option is used, it will not fork in the background. The  reason  it  forks  is
       that  if delivery of a mail takes longer time than the mail server will allow a command to
       be idle before presumed dead, the mail server would kill it.
