NAME

printmail - format mail in a readable fashion for printing

SYNOPSIS

printmail {-p} {filename}

DESCRIPTION

Printmail copies all messages from either the file specified or the default user mailbox with each message separated by a line of dashes.  With the −p option, the messages are separated by a formfeed instead.  In fact, this command is actually just a slightly differently formatted call to readmsg:

readmsg {-p} {-f filename} ∗

which does all the work here. 

EXAMPLE

A typical usage of this command is;

 printmail | lpr
