SFEED_MBOX(1)		     General Commands Manual		   SFEED_MBOX(1)

NAME
     sfeed_mbox -- format feed data to mboxrd

SYNOPSIS
     sfeed_mbox [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
     sfeed_mbox  formats  feed	data  (TSV) from sfeed(1) from stdin or for each
     file to stdout in the mboxrd format.  If one or  more  file  arguments  are
     specified	then  the  basename  of the file is used as the feed name in the
     output.  If no file arguments are specified and so the data  is  read  from
     stdin  then the feed name is empty.  The mbox data can be further processed
     by tools like procmail(1) or fdm(1) for example.  See the README  file  for
     some examples.

CUSTOM HEADERS
     To make further filtering simpler some custom headers are set:

     X-Feedname
	     The feed name, this is the basename of the feed file.

     X-RSS-Author
	     Item author, if it is set.

     X-RSS-Enclosure
	     Item, first enclosure, if it is set.

     X-RSS-ID
	     RSS item GUID or Atom id, if it is set.

     X-RSS-TAGS
	     Category field, the '|' separator is replaced by a comma (',').

     X-RSS-URL
	     Item link, if it is set.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     SFEED_MBOX_CONTENT
	     Include  the  content.   This  can be insecure for some of the mail
	     clients that interpret HTML code in an unsafe way.  By default this
	     is set to "0".

     SFEED_MBOX_FROM
	     Override the "From" header.  The default is the author of the  item
	     (if  it  has one) and the e-mail "<anonymous@localhost>".	Some un-
	     safe characters are removed from the author field.

     SFEED_MBOX_TO
	     Override the "To" header.	The default is "<anonymous@localhost>".

EXIT STATUS
     The sfeed_mbox utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

EXAMPLES
     Example:

	 sfeed_mbox ~/.sfeed/feeds/*

     Below is an example to include the content.  This can be insecure for  some
     of the mail clients that interpret HTML code in an unsafe way:

	 SFEED_MBOX_CONTENT=1 sfeed_mbox ~/.sfeed/feeds/*
