NAME
    SendMail
    RMail

SYNOPSIS
    SendMail <mailfile [-f user] [-R realname] [-t to] [-c ccto] [-b bccto]
		       [-s subject] [-r] [-raw]

    RMail <mailfile users...

DESCRIPTION

    -r is specified to force sendmail not to process the 'From ' header
    and is automatically specified when sendmail is run as rmail.  Note
    that if run as rmail, the command line contains only To: addresses.
    options are ignored.

    For sending mail,  all options are optional.  SendMail will process
    and regenerate the Subject:, To:,  Cc:,  and Bcc: lines,  appending
    any additional  specifications  on the command line.  SendMail will
    generate From:,  Date:,  and other required headers,  then send the
    mail to the appropriate destination.

    A given mail file  consists of zero or more headers,  a blank line,
    then the mail contents. The -raw option may be used for unformatted
    mail (see below).

    -f user

	Specify user sourcing the mail, generates a 'From:' header.  This
	header will be overridden  by any From: headers in the data file.

    -R realname

	Specify  real name of user sourcing the mail.  This name is  placed
	in parenthesis after the user name in the generated 'From:' header.

    -t to

	Specify an email address to send the mail to.

    -c ccto

	Specify an email address to send a carbon copy to.

    -b bccto

	Specify  an email address  to send a blind  carbon copy to  (other
	(recipients  do not know you sent the mail to this address because
	the Bcc: line is never propogated).

    -s subject

	Specify the subject of the article.  The subject must be placed in
	quotes if it contains tabs or spaces.

    -r

	Specify that  sendmail is to go into 'rmail' mode.  This mode also
	occurs if sendmail is renamed to rmail and run as  rmail.  In this
	mode,  the very first line of the data file MUST be in the 'From '
	form  (From with a space and no colon),  as in UUCP received mail.
	After this headers are expected, then a blank line,  then the mail
	data.

	If not specified and sendmail is run,  the 'From ' is not expected
	but the headers, blank line, and mail are.

    -raw

	Specify  that the the TEXT BODY ON STDIN IS UNFORMATTED.  Sendmail
	does not attempt to scan the text body for  headers but assumes it
	is entirely  data.  Otherwise,	the text body must contain zero or
	more headers, a blank line, and then the text body.

	For example:

		sendmail <datafile -f root -t marco -s test

	Where the datafile (on stdin) is not formatted... does not contain
	any headers or even necessarily a blank line at the beginning.

UULib:Config

    BounceCcPostMaster Y/N

	If a message is bounced, for any reason, then the local postmaster
	will receive a copy of the error message and the headers.

	The postmaster does *not* receive a copy of the body of the message.

    BounceNoDomain     Y/N

	Default: N.

	If a domain is invalid, or the incoming message is not for this
	domain, then bounce the message.

	Remember that you must also remove the '*' (default node) entry in
	your Domain file to have this do anything reasonable.

	Prior to 1.17beta4, this option was known as MailBounce.

    BounceNoUser       Y/N

	If a user is invalid, based on Checkuser, or if a message cannot be
	delivered for any reason, then return the message to the originator.

	Otherwise, drop the message.

    CheckUser

	A program which will validate the existence of the specified local
	user. Sendmail will call the specified program as:

		checkuser username

	The program should output (to stdout) either a "*" followed by
	anything, which indicates that address is invalid, or repeat
	the username.

	When "*" is output, sendmail will bounce the mail.

    DomainName

	(Also used for News.) The domain in which your system resides.
	Default ".UUCP".

    DomainPath	Y/N

	(Also enables DomainPath for news.) Places your fully domained
	host name in mail headers instead of USENET node name.	Use ONLY
	if your feed requires it.  Default N

    LogMail	Y/N

	If set, sendmail and rmail will log information about each mail
	message sent and received. By default, this information is placed
	into UUSpool:MailLog, but that may be modified with the MAILLOG
	configuration option.

    MailLog

	Where to log mail send/receive information. See LogMail.

    Host-xxx-MaxRMailLen
    MaxRMailLen

	If 0, means only one recipient per queue file is allowed (some
	mailers are restricted like this).  If non-zero, then specifies
	maximum length, in bytes, that the 'C rmail' line in the X.
	file may be.  If the recipient list is larger than the buffer
	length, then multiple queue files will be generated.

	The value is the minimum of the maximum the neighbor can accept 
	and the maximum your system can create by running UUX from system().
        The longer the value for the variable UUX, the shorter your
        system's restrictions.

	Some Known Values
	---- ----- ------
	Maximum a neighbor can accept:
	Kickstart 37.175, Workbench 37.67, uucp 1.17{ask@castrov.UUCP/10},
		compiled with DICE 3.0: x = 517
	Maximum local can create, assuming UUX is undefined: 
	Kickstart 37.175, Workbench 37.67, uucp 1.17{ask@castrov.UUCP/10},
		compiled with DICE 3.0: 445 <= x < 495 (needs more testing)

	The Host-xxx-MaxRMailLen form overrides the MaxRMailLen form
	when preparing a queue file for system xxx.  (E.g., if one of
	your neighbors is 'ender', the variable Host-ender-MaxRMailLen
	will be used, if it exists, in preference to MaxRMailLen).
	Each neighbor can have a value tuned to their limitations rather 
	than being restricted to the smallest value of all neighbors.

    MailReadyCmd

	A command to be executed when a local delivery of mail occurs.
	Executed only once per sendmail/rmail invocation.

    NodeName

	(Also used by news.) Defines the name of your computer system.
	No default.

    Host-xxx-SmartUUCP
    SmartUUCP	Y/N

	If SmartUUCP is set, then the envelope "From " line generated 
	by sendmail will not contain a "remote from" string, instead 
	it contains a fully qualified domain name (FQDN).  Similarly
	the addresses in the envelope "rmail " line are in @-format
	rather than !-format.  Some UUCP systems do not	support a FQDN 
	in the "From " line.  Default N.

	The Host-xxx-SmartUUCP form overrides the SmartUUCP form
	when preparing a queue file for system xxx.  (E.g., if one of
	your neighbors is 'ender', the variable Host-ender-SmartUUCP
	will be used, if it exists, in preference to SmartUUCP).
        Each neighbor can have a their own value.  Sendmail/rmail
	will translate to and from SmartUUCP form as required.

    StripUUCP	Y/N

	Strips the ".UUCP" off any addresses that have it for Domain
	comparisons. Primarily there for the UUNET.CA folks. Default N.

    TimeZone

	(Also used by news.) Defines the TIMEZONE used in generating
	dates. May be in +0700/-0400 format. Defaults to +0600.

    UUX

	The name of the UUX program to execute to send mail via UUCP.
	Prior to 1.17, SENDMAIL built UUCP control files directly. Now
	it calls UUX to do so.

NOTES

    (1) Any unqualified To: or Cc: fields (i.e. local users) will be
	qualified with your machine's full domain name.  This includes
	local users in aliases.

    (2) Sendmail will attempt to group multiple recipients of a given
	message into a single batch file, if possible.

    (3) See UUMan:Aliases for a description of the way aliases are expanded
	on the To: field. A double-colon specification in the alias causes
	it to NOT be expanded in the To: field.
