maildirserial(1)	    General Commands Manual	      maildirserial(1)

NAME
       maildirserial - send a maildir through a	client

SYNOPSIS
       maildirserial [ -b ] [ -tlifetime ] dir prefix client [ arg ...	]

DESCRIPTION
       maildirserial scans a maildir, dir, for messages	whose envelope recipi-
       ent  addresses  begin  with prefix.  It then invokes client (in the dir
       directory) and feeds client a list of 0-terminated filenames.

       client prints a series of results.  Each	result is a 0-terminated file-
       name, a status byte, and	an LF-terminated  human-readable  status  mes-
       sage.   The  status  byte is K if client	has accepted the message, Z if
       client has temporarily rejected the message, or D if client has	perma-
       nently rejected the message.

       maildirserial will remove messages accepted by client.

       maildirserial  may  run	client repeatedly if client exits without han-
       dling all the files.  maildirserial will	give up	if it  is  not	making
       any progress.

OPTIONS
       -b   Bounce  permanently	rejected messages back to the envelope sender,
	    and	then remove them.

       -tlifetime
	    Treat temporary rejection as permanent rejection for messages more
	    than lifetime seconds old.
