NAME

       pygn2m - Python Gateway news to mail

SYNOPSIS

       pygs -t recipient@domain1 -s sender@domain2 [ -e envelope@domain3 ] [ -h ]

DESCRIPTION

       IMPORTANT:  this  man  page  is to be continued. The Whole pyg gateway is in devel. state.
       try -h option for more detailed option.

       pygn2m reads from stdin a nntp article, sending it to recipient@domain1 a rfc822 compliant
       email  setting Resent-Sender: sender@domain2 and envelope envelope@domain3 if exists, else
       sender@domain2.

       If pygn2m reads from stdin a sigle line starting with /, it is considered an absolute path
       to an article (ie in a spool), so pygn2m will open and read it.

EXAMPLES

       There is some documetation in /urs/share/doc/pyg

       I  created  mailgate  user  (moderator  of  local.moderated  ng).  Every article posted in
       local.moderated is sent to mailgate, in its .procmailrc I've put:

       :0   bhc   *    ^To:    *local-moderated    |    $HOME/pygs    -t    kalfa@localhost    -e
       mailgate@students.cs.unibo.it -s 'cosimo@students.cs.unibo.it'

       where kalfa@localhost is the recipient (usually a mailing list)

       Here is an header extract from kalfa@localhost mbox:

       From  mailgate@students.cs.unibo.it  From:  whosentnntparticle@domain4 To: kalfa@localhost
       Resent-Sender: cosimo@students.cs.unibo.it

       note that sender and envelope are different. rfc822 says that Sender: have to be  a  human
       user (not a program or similia). envelope can mailgate user.
