NAME

       rcvpack - append an email from standard input to a file

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/mh/rcvpack [-help] [-version] file [-mbox] [-mmdf]

DESCRIPTION

       rcvpack appends a copy of a message to the file specified on its command line.

       If  the  -mbox  switch is given (the default), messages are separated by mbox (uucp) style
       delimiters.  This is the format used by most mail clients (elm, mailx, etc.).

       Alternatively, if the -mmdf  switch  is  given,  messages  are  separated  by  mmdf  style
       delimiters, each message being separated by four CTRL-A's and a newline.

       rcvpack  will correctly lock and unlock the file to serialize access when running multiple
       copies of rcvpack.

       In general, rcvpack has been rendered obsolete by the file action of slocal,  although  it
       may still have some use in shell scripts.
