$Header: Beta:src/uucp/src/dmail/RCS/README,v 1.1 90/02/02 12:03:46 dillon Exp Locker: dillon $
README FILE FOR DMAIL v1.12 distribution June 1989
Read Makefile for compiling and installation procedures.
Dmail compiles fine on UNIX BSD 4.2/4.3. and the Amiga. A man page exists
and every command as a full help page online from Dmail.
AN EXAMPLE OF A .DMAILRC FILE: (happens to be mine)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
alias normal "setlist -s 18 From 38 Subject 10 To 0 Cc 0 Date"
alias from "setlist -s 66 From; list; normal"
alias me "select To dillon , Cc dillon"
alias bugs "select To root staff manag , Cc staff manag root"
alias trek "select To trek , Cc trek"
alias notme "select -s To !dillon; resel -s Cc !dillon; resel From !dillon"
alias hack "select To hacker , Cc hacker"
alias page set page more
alias nopage unset page
alias k tag
alias kn "tag ; next"
alias spool "g /usr/spool/mail/dillon ~/Dmail/mbox"
alias keep "g ~/Dmail/keep"
alias mbox "g ~/Dmail/mbox"
alias q "select -s all; write ~/Dmail/keep -s tag; delete -s tag; quit"
alias g "select -s all; write ~/Dmail/keep -s tag; delete -s tag; qswi"
set amiga "decwrl!pyramid!amiga!support"
set header ~/.mailheader
set ask
normal
cd ~/Dmail
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the above example, I have created a Dmail directory to hold all my
folders. Each folder will be a file containing multiple messages, fully
compatible with /usr/spool/ and mbox.
my dmail alias is this:
alias dmail '\dmail -O -l ~/Dmail/.dmailrc -o ~/Dmail/mbox -F Cc -F Date'
NOTE: you don't need to alias dmail to anything. without any arguments,
it acts like /bin/Mail getting your mail from your spool, and placing
read mail on quit to mbox in your home directory. I use -O so dmail
gives me a command prompt even if there is no mail, and the -F options
tell dmail to load those subjects into memory automatically (because I'm
going to select on them immediately anyway). If a field which you select
on is not in memory, dmail must go to the mail file to find the field.
This is transparent.
GOOD LUCK!
---------------------------------------------- Another example of an .dmailrc
if !comlinemail
alias ls "! ls"
alias normal "setlist -s 18 From 38 Subject 10 To 0 Cc 0 Date"
alias news "setlist -s 18 Newsgroup 30 Subject 10 Date 6 Lines 0 Keywords"
alias hack "select To hacker , Cc hacker"
alias page set page more
alias nopage unset page
alias spool "g /usr/spool/mail/dillon ~/Dmail/mbox"
alias keep "g ~/Dmail/keep"
alias mbox "g ~/Dmail/mbox"
alias amiga "select Resent-From: info , To: info , Cc: info
alias g "qswitch"
alias kill "%var sel Sub $var;d all;sel all"
set amiga "decwrl!pyramid!amiga!support"
set header ~/.mailheader
normal
cd ~/Dmail
set archive ~/Dmail/arch
endif
