Editor’s note:
The information in this node may be obsolete or otherwise inaccurate. This message will disappear, once this node revised. |
Following configuration file statements affect the behavior of
movemail
:
If bool is ‘true’, do not remove messages from the source mailbox.
If bool is ‘true’, reverse message sorting order.
If bool is ‘true’, output information used by Emacs rmail interface.
Continue moving messages after errors. By default,
mailfromd
exits immediately if it cannot copy a message.
Set program identifier, i.e. a string which will prefix all diagnostic messages issued by the program. By default, program name is used.
The fmt is a format string that may contain references to the following macro variables (see macro-variables (Editor’s note: dangling link)):
progname
The program name.
source
URL of the source mailbox.
source:user
User part of the source mailbox URL.
source:host
Host part of the source mailbox URL.
source:path
Path part of the source mailbox URL.
dest
URL of the destination mailbox
dest:user
User part of the destination mailbox URL.
dest:host
Host part of the destination mailbox URL.
dest:path
Path part of the destination mailbox URL.
Setting program-id
may be necessary if several movemail
instances are run simultaneously (e.g. invoked from a script) to
discern between the instances. For example:
program-id "${progname}: ${source} => ${dest}"
Avoid copying the message if a message with the same UIDL already exists in the destination mailbox.
Set verbosity level.
Define list of methods for setting ownership of the destination mailbox. The method-list argument can contain the following elements:
Copy owner UID and GID from the source mailbox. This method works only with local mailboxes, i.e.: ‘mbox’ (UNIX mailbox), ‘maildir’ and ‘mh’.
Get owner name from the source mailbox URL and obtain UID and GID for this user using mailutils authorization methods.
Set supplied uid and gid. If gid is not supplied, it is read from the /etc/passwd record for this UID.
Make destination mailbox owned by user.
