rcvstore(1mh)rcvstore(1mh)Namercvstore - incorporate new mail asynchronously
Syntaxrcvstore [ +folder ] [ -[no]create ] [ -help ] [ -sequence name ] [
-[no]public ] [ -[no]zero ]
Description
The command incorporates a message from the standard input into an MH
folder. If a +folder argument is not given the file is placed in your
folder. The new message being incorporated is assigned the next high‐
est number in the folder.
If the specified (or default) folder does not exist, it is created if
the -create option is specified; otherwise exits.
If your file contains a Msg-Protect: entry, it is used as the protec‐
tion on the newly created messages; otherwise the MH default of 0600 is
used. During all operations on messages, this initially assigned pro‐
tection is preserved for each message. You can use to change the pro‐
tection on an individual message, and the new protection is preserved
thereafter.
The command incorporates anything except zero length messages into your
MH folder.
If the profile entry Unseen-Sequence: is present and non-empty, then
adds the newly incorporated message to each sequence named by the pro‐
file entry. Note that does not zero each sequence prior to adding mes‐
sages.
Options-create
-nocreate Creates the specified folder. If you attempt to incorporate
mail into a folder that does not exist, creates the folder if
you supply the -create option. If you supply the -nocreate
option, the folder is not created and exits. The default is
-create.
-help Prints a list of the valid options to this command.
-public
-nopublic Sets the read permissions of sequences. Normally, when you
create a sequence with the -sequence option, the sequence is
not accessible to other MH users. The -public option makes
the sequence accessible to other MH users. You can use the
-nopublic option to ensure that the sequence that you create
is only accessible to yourself.
-sequence name
Specifies a sequence in which places the messages which it
incorporates. For more information on sequences, see The
name of the sequence must begin with a letter, and must con‐
sist entirely of alphabetic or numeric characters; no punctu‐
ation is allowed.
-zero
-nozero Specifies whether to zero existing sequences before adding
new messages. Normally, removes all existing messages from a
sequence before adding messages to it. If you specify the
-nozero option, adds the messages it finds to the existing
contents of the sequence. This option only works with the
-sequence option.
The defaults for this command are:
+folder defaults to
-create
-nopublic if the folder is read-only, otherwise -public
-nozero
