SYMPA_MSG(8) sympa 6.2.76 SYMPA_MSG(8) NAME sympa_msg, sympa_msg.pl - Daemon to handle incoming messages SYNOPSIS "sympa_msg.pl" [ "-d", "--debug" ] [ "-f", "--file"=another.sympa.conf ] [ "-k", "--keepcopy"=directory ] [ "-l", "--lang"=lang ] [ "-m", "--mail" ] [ "-h", "--help" ] [ "-v", "--version" ] DESCRIPTION Sympa_msg.pl is a program which scans permanently the incoming message spool and processes each message. Messages bound for the lists and authorized sending are modified as necessity and at last stored into digest spool, archive spool and outgoing spool. Those bound for command addresses are interpreted and appropriate actions are taken. Those bound for listmasters or list admins are forwarded to them.

"-f", "--config="file Force Sympa to use an alternative configuration file instead of /usr/local/etc/sympa/sympa.conf. "-l", "--lang="lang Set this option to use a language for Sympa. The corresponding gettext catalog file must be located in $LOCALEDIR directory. "--log_level="level Sets Sympa log level. sympa_msg.pl may run in daemon mode with following options. "--foreground" The process remains attached to the TTY. "-k", "--keepcopy="directory This option tells Sympa to keep a copy of every incoming message, instead of deleting them. `directory' is the directory to store messages. "-m", "--mail" Sympa will log calls to sendmail, including recipients. This option is useful for keeping track of each mail sent (log files may grow faster though). "--service="service Note: This option was deprecated.
