NAME
     dbmail-deliver - inserts messages into DBMail.

SYNOPSIS
     dbmail-deliver [common options] --to-address address [options]
     dbmail-deliver [common options] --to-header headerfield [options]
     dbmail-deliver [common options] --to-user usernames [options]

DESCRIPTION
     The  dbmail-deliver  program  inserts messages from the commandline or from
     any MTA into DBMail. The program reads from standard input.

OPTIONS
     -d, --to-address addresses...
	 Deliver messages to the recipients specified by addresses. This  option
	 is mostly used for delivery from an MTA. Separate multiple addresses by
	 spaces.

     -t, --to-header headerfield
	 Deliver messages to the recipient MIME header specified in headerfield.
	 The  default  header  to use is the "Delivered-To:" header. The header-
	 field should be lower case e.g. delivered-to

     -u, --to-user usernames...
	 Deliver messages straight to  the  given  username.  Separate	multiple
	 usernames with spaces.

     -m, --mailbox mailboxname
	 Deliver messages to mailbox mailboxname of the recipient. If this mail-
	 box  does  not exist yet, it is created. Sieve scripts will be run nor-
	 mally, possibly altering the destination mailbox.

     -M, --mailbox-force mailboxname
	 Deliver messages to mailbox mailboxname of the recipient. If this mail-
	 box does not exist yet, it is created. Sieve scripts are not run.  Per-
	 mission checks are not performed for mailbox creation or message deliv-
	 ery.

     -r, return-path returnpath
	 Set return path for bounces and other error reports to return path.

COMMON OPTIONS
     -f, --config configfile
	 Specify an alternate config file.

	 Use dbmail-<utility> --help to show the default location.

     -q, --quiet
	 Quietly  skip	interactive  prompts  and  helpful status messages which
	 would otherwise be printed to stdout. Use two -q's  to  silence  errors
	 which would otherwise be printed to stderr.

     -v, --verbose
	 Operate  verbosely.  Some of the utilities in the DBMail suite can take
	 two -v's for extra verbosity. Those which don't understand this conven-
	 tion won't complain about having the extra -v and will  simply  operate
	 at their normal verbosity.

     -V, --version
	 Show the version and copyright, then exit.

     -h, --help
	 Show a brief summary of options, then exit.
