distribute - reforward incoming messages to a mailing list
|
|
|
|
Distribute takes as its standard input a mail message, modifies
|
|
the header (and optionally the body) of that message, then invokes
|
|
sendmail to send the message to the specified recipients. It is
|
|
primarily useful for those who run large mailing lists.
|
|
|
|
Distribute does not include membership management. It only does the
|
|
rewrite and dispatch of the mailng list emails.
|
|
Use majordomo (ports/mail/majordomo) for membership management.
|
|
|
|
Facilities include:
|
|
Article numbering
|
|
Subject rewrite to Subject: (mailing-list 1234)
|
|
Proper handling of error related headers
|
|
Reply-to rewrite/insertion if necessery
