- Mailer Daemon Ver 04.23.88-0.0.3
-
-
- This utility currently does two things :
-
- 1. Scan orphans directory for mail, each message found will be
- sent to the sysop (including contents of the *.x and *.d file)
-
- 2. Scan orphans directory for any news articles. It will tally
- the newgroups that are found and send a message to the sysop
- with a list of newsgroups and article counts. This is useful
- information so the sysop can update his/her uucp.ctl file.
-
-
- The program is evoked as mdaemon (no options available at this time).
- Also keep in mind that it will not delete any file in the orphans
- directory.
-
- Here is an example batch file entry:
-
-
-
- uuslave -x1 -c
- mailin
- cub
- newsin
-
- rem send news to seeker
- newsfrwd novavax seeker
- rem send any articles from seeker back to the net
- newsfrwd seeker novavax
-
- rem handling mailing lists
- maillist
-
- rem check orphans
- mdaemon
- rem delete any orphans, remember del uucp\orphans\*.* will prompt the
- rem operator for input (in otherwords, hang the bbs)
- del uucp\orphans\*.d
- del uucp\orphans\*.x

- If you have any further suggestions for added functions please let me
- know. I do plan on implementing a bounce back feature in the relatively
- near future...
