RMAIL PROGRAM FOR USE IN CONJUNCTION WITH QMAIL
This is a simple 'C' program to allow mail delivered to a machine running the 'qmail' mail system to be processed and re-delivered to its intended final recipient (be that a user on the receiving machine or elsewhere out on the internet !).

The program functions by accepting, from the 'uuxqt' program (invoked when incoming emails (or other commands to be processed) are received via uucp, a destination user-address and the email to be sent. Standard rmail convention dictates that rmail receives the user-address as a command-argument/parameter and the message contents over 'standard input'. Accordingly the rmail program can be tested from the command-line thus:

rmail  'destn-user@destn-domain'  << eof
From source-domain!source-user
From: source-user@source-domain
To: destn-user@destn-domain
Subject: test

test line 1
test line 2
eof

Some mail systems use the old uucp-style addressing (domain!user) and others the internet-style (uer@domain). Both are supported, as shown in the above example.
