NAME

       pycmail - mail sorter

SYNOPSIS

       pycmail [-d debuglevel] [-t] [-c conffile] [file1 file2 file3 ...]

DESCRIPTION

       pycmail is a mail sorter similar to procmail, written in python, using python syntax for mail delivery.

OPTIONS

       file1  file2 ...  read mails from file1 file2 ... instead of from stdin (useful for mail postprocessing)

       -d level, --debuglevel level
              set debuglevel to level.

       -t     testing mode. No mail delivery will be done. Use in conjuction with -d

       -c conffile, --config=conffile
              use file conffile as a user configuration file (instead of ~/.pycmailrc )

       -D define
              add  define  to  the  DEFINES  list  (this  can  be  tested  later in the .pycmailrc to modify the
              behaviour).  Can be repeated several times to add more strings.

USAGE

       pycmail should be invoked automatically from the .forward file when mail arrives.

       Default debuglevel is 0, which means pycmail tries to deliver mail in almost foolproof way: if  there  is
       any   error   in   ~/.pycmailrc   file,   mail  will  be  delivered  to  the  default  mailbox  (such  as
       /var/spool/mail/USERNAME ).

       If the debuglevel is 1, any error in ~/.pycmailrc file will be printed, resulting in  bounced  mail  (but
       pycmail will still try to deliver the mail to default mailbox).

       Higher  debuglevels  will  print  more  information  about  the  actual  mail  processing. The bigger the
       debuglevel, the more detailed information is printed.

       To test your configuration, do something like this:
       formail -s pycmail -d 2 -t < your_test_mailbox_file
