NAME
dbmail-smtp - inserts messages into the DBMail mailsystem.
SYNOPSIS
dbmail-smtp [-t headerfield] [-d addresses] [-u usernames] [-m|-M
mailboxname] [-r return path] [-f configFile]
DESCRIPTION
The dbmail-smtp program inserts messages from the commandline or from
any MTA into the DBMail mailsystem. The program reads from standard
input.
OPTIONS
-t headerfield
Deliver messages to the recipient MIME header specified in
headerfield. The default header to use is the "Delivered-To:"
header.
-d addresses...
Deliver messages to the recipients specified by addresses. This
option is mostly used for delivery from an MTA. Seperate multiple
addresses by spaces.
-u usernames...
Deliver messages straight to the given username. Seperate multiple
usernames with spaces.
-m mailboxname
Deliver messages to mailbox mailboxname of the recipient. If this
mailbox does not exist yet, it is created. Sieve scripts will be run
normally, possibly altering the destination mailbox.
-M mailboxname
Deliver messages to mailbox mailboxname of the recipient. If this
mailbox does not exist yet, it is created. Sieve scripts are not
run. Permission checks are not performed for mailbox creation or
message delivery.
-r returnpath
Set return path for bounces and other error reports to return path.
COMMON OPTIONS
-f configfile
Specify an alternate config file. The utilities are currently
hardcoded to use /etc/dbmail.conf for their configs, and will halt
if the config file cannot be found. Use the -f configfile option to
specify your system’s preferred config file location.
-q
Quietly skip interactive prompts and helpful status messages which
would otherwise be printed to stdout. Use two -q’s to silence errors
which would otherwise be printed to stderr.
-v
Operate verbosely. Some of the utilities in the DBMail suite can
take two -v’s for extra verbosity. Those which don’t understand this
convention won’t complain about having the extra -v and will simply
operate at their normal verbosity.
-V
Show the version and copyright, then exit.
-h
Show a brief summary of options, then exit.
