| 23 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
|---|
| 24 | The \fIrcvdist\fR program will accept a message on its standard input |
|---|
| 25 | and resend a copy of this message to all of the addresses listed on its |
|---|
| 26 | command line. |
|---|
| 27 | |
|---|
| 28 | When a message is redistributed with the \fIrcvdist\fR command, the |
|---|
| 29 | format of the Resent-xxx header fields is controlled by the forms files |
|---|
| 30 | "rcvdistcomps". If a file named "rcvdistcomps" exists in the user's nmh |
|---|
| 31 | directory, it will be used instead of the default one. You may specify |
|---|
| 32 | an alternate forms file with the switch `\-form\ formfile'. |
|---|
| 33 | |
|---|
| 34 | The "rcvdistcomps" file uses the format string facility described in |
|---|
| 35 | \fImh\-format\fR(5). In addition to the standard format escapes, |
|---|
| 36 | \fIrcvdist\fP also recognizes the following additional \fIcomponent\fR |
|---|
| 37 | escape: |
|---|
| 38 | .sp 1 |
|---|
| 39 | .ne 5 |
|---|
| 40 | .nf |
|---|

|---|
| 43 | addresses string the addresses to distribute to |
|---|
| 44 | .re |
|---|
| 45 | .fi |
|---|
| 46 | |
|---|
| 47 | By default, \fIrcvdist\fR uses the program \fIpost\fR(8) to do the actual |
|---|
| 48 | delivery of the message, although this can be changed by defining the |
|---|
| 49 | \fIpostproc\fR profile component. |
