resend(C)
resend --
redistribute mail using the Resent- notation
Syntax
resend
[ -rw ] [ --subargs ] addresses
[ -t addresses ] [ -c addresses ]
Description
The resend command
is responsible for taking as input a standard mail message,
adding the various Resent- components to it, and then handing
it over to
submit(ADM).
The usual method of operation is to pipe a message into resend
and supply the addresses to which to resend the message on the command line.
The default behavior can be changed with the following flags:
-r-
This specifies that error returns for this message are not required.
-w-
This flag enables you to follow the delivery attempt.
submit and its children will print out what they are doing.
---
Any argument starting in this manner is passed directly
to submit after losing the --.
After the flags have been processed, the address lists for
the message are built up. Normally all addresses are put onto
one ``Resent-To:'' line, but they can be broken up onto
several ``Resent-To:'' lines by prefixing a block of addresses
with the -t flag. Alternatively the -c flag will start
building up a list of ``Resent-Cc:'' addresses. resend
looks after all the other headers, such as ``Resent-Date'', ``Resent-From''
etc.
