NAME
       deliver - deliver mail to an IMAP mailbox

SYNOPSIS
       deliver [ -C config-file ] [ -d ] [ -r address ]
	       [ -f address ] [ -m mailbox ] [ -a auth-id ]
	       [ -q ] [ userid ]...
       deliver [ -C config-file ] -l

DESCRIPTION
       Deliver	reads a message from the standard input and delivers it to one
       or more IMAP mailboxes.

       Deliver reads its configuration options out of the  imapd.conf(5)  file
       unless specified otherwise by -C.

OPTIONS
       -C config-file
	      Read configuration options from config-file.

       -d     Ignored for compatability with /bin/mail.

       -r address
	      Insert a Return-Path: header containing address

       -f address
	      Insert a Return-Path: header containing address

       -m mailbox
	      Deliver  to  mailbox.  If any userids are specified, attempts to
	      deliver to user.userid.mailbox for each userid.  If the  ACL  on
	      any  such	 mailbox does not grant the sender the "p" right or if
	      -m is not specified, then delivers to the INBOX for the  userid,
	      regardless of the ACL on the INBOX.

	      If no userids are specified, attempts to deliver to mailbox.  If
	      the ACL on mailbox does not grant the sender the "p" right,  the
	      delivery fails.

       -a auth-id
	      Specify the authorization id of the sender.  Defaults to "anony‐
	      mous".

       -q     Deliver message even when receiving mailbox is over quota.

       -l     Accept messages using the LMTP protocol.

NOTES
       Depending on the setting of reject8bit in imapd.conf(5), deliver either
       rejects/accepts	messages with 8-bit-set characters in the headers.  If
       we accept messages with	8-bit-set  characters  in  the	headers,  then
       depending on the setting of munge8bit, these characters are either left
       un-touched or changed to `X'.  This is because such characters can't be
       interpreted  since the character set is not known, although some commu‐
       nities not well-served by US-ASCII assume that those characters can  be
       used to represent characters not present in US-ASCII.

       A method for encoding 8-bit-set characters is provided by RFC 2047.

FILES
       /etc/imapd.conf
