DILOOKUP(8)		     System Manager's Manual		     DILOOKUP(8)

NAME
     dilookup - Diablo program to run searches on the dhistory file

SYNOPSIS
     dilookup [ -s ] [ -V ] [ message-id / h1.h2 ]

DESCRIPTION
     DiLookup  will look a message-id or hash-code pair up in the dhistory data-
     base.  The message-id must be surrounded by < >, while the  hash-code  pair
     consists of two hex numbers separated by a dot.  For example:

     dilookup '<sdf$sdlfk@asdlfjk.com>'

     dilookup D.00d9513e/00183712.005b433b.0000

     dilookup 00183712.005b433b.0000

     dilookup 00183712.005b433b

     As  you  can see, DiLookup also accepts a directory/filename form, just the
     filename form, or just the hash code pair.  It will silently discard every-
     thing but the hash code pair.  When given a message-id, DiLookup will  con-
     vert  the	message-id  to	a hash code pair internally.  DiLookup will also
     parse message-id's directory out of queue files which can be  useful  in  a
     tail -f situation.

     Valid options are:

     -V

     Print the version number and exit.

     -s

     Take ids from standard input instead of the command line. This is useful if
     you  want to look up many articles. In the mode, everything up to the first
     space in the standard input is ignored in the lookup, but prepended to  the
     output line.

     For Diablo 3 style spools, the result is usually something like:

      [P.03/D.00fa6716/B.0b1b  hv=aa63f9bf.36b5877a  spool=03 gm=16410390 ex=103
     off=0 len=1245 f=] GM=(15-Mar-2001 03:30:00) EX=(valid)

     The hash code pair and iteration, the spool in which the article is stored,
     the time in gmt-minutes when the article was  received  (NOT  when  it  was
     posted!), the expiration (see EX), the offset in the spool file, the length
     of the article and flags (header-only entry). If bit 15 is set in the expi-
     ration  field,  the  spool  is storing a header-only article. Otherwise the
     spool is storing a full article.

     GM= is a decoding of the gm field in human-readable GMT.

     EX= decodes some bits of the the ex field.
