MAILDMN -- mailer daemnon for fido's.
USAGE:
maildmn [-userfile] [<multiple word daemon identity>]
SYNOPSIS:
for use with FIDO's like 11w, etc. maildmn checks the To: field of
each FIDO compatible message file, x.MSG, and, if this name does not
appear in the user file (default: \fido\USER.BBS) is returned to
sender.
If your userfile is not \fido\USER.BBS then the first parameter for
maildmn should be - followed IMMEDIATELY by the FIDO compatible user
file, eg: maildmn -\bbs\USER.BBS, maildmn -USER.BBS, etc
When mail is returned it is simply re-addressed as follows:
(From: field) ==> (To: field)
"Mailer Daemon" ==> (From: field)
An explanation is prepended to the text of the message.
You can change the Mailer Daemon's identity to Fred Smith by typing:
maildmn Fred Smith
These parameters are concatenated together with one space separating
each token. Get the capitalization right on the command line!
ETC:
This is written in C, compiled by MSC v5.0 small model, and distributed
free because, well, what the hell. All you people out there have been
good to me.
Flames to /dev/null
FIDO is a trade mark of Tom Jennings and/or Fido Software, I forget which.
I make no guarantees about enything (even to myself).
PS:
The other program, mailhdr, simply displays a piece of the message header
so you can confirm that maildmn worked.
