RCVDIST(1mh)                                                                            RCVDIST(1mh)



NAME
       rcvdist - asynchronously receive and distribute new email

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/mh/rcvdist [-help] [-version] [-form formfile] [switches for postproc] address1 ...

DESCRIPTION
       rcvdist  accepts  a message on its standard input and resends a copy of the message to all of
       the addresses listed on its command line.

       The format of the Resent-xxx header fields is specified by the form file “rcvdistcomps”.   If
       a  file  named  “rcvdistcomps” exists in the user's nmh directory, it will be used instead of
       the default file.  You may specify an alternate forms file with -form formfile.

       The “rcvdistcomps” file uses the format string facility described in mh-format(5).  In  addi‐
       tion to the standard format escapes, rcvdist also recognizes the following component escape:

            Escape    Returns  Description
            addresses string   the addresses to distribute to

       By  default,  rcvdist  uses  the  post  program  to deliver the message, although this can be
       changed by defining the postproc profile component.
