SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/rcvpack file [-mbox] [-mmdf] [-version] [-help]
DESCRIPTION
The rcvpack program will append a copy of the message to the file
listed on its command line.
If the -mbox switch is given (the default), then the messages are sepa‐
rated using mbox (uucp) style delimiters. This is the format used by
most mail clients (elm, mailx, etc.).
If the -mmdf switch is given, then the messages are separated by mmdf
style delimiters. Each message in the file is separated by four
CTRL-A's and a newline.
rcvpack will correctly lock and unlock the file to serialize access to
the file, when running multiple copies of rcvpack .
In general, its use is obsoleted by the file action of slocal, although
it might still have occasional uses in various shell scripts.
