NAME

mlmmj-recieve - recieve mails for an mlmmj managed mailinglist

SYNOPSIS

mlmmj-recieve -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-recieve 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-recieve -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.
