CHECKADDR(ADM)                       UNIX System V



     Name
          checkaddr - MMDF address verification program


     Syntax
          /usr/mmdf/bin/checkaddr [-w] [ addresses... ]


     Description
          The checkaddr program is used to check the  validity  of  an
          address  within the local mail system (MMDF).  checkaddr can
          be given addresses either on the command line,  one  address
          per  argument,  or  a  list  of  addresses  can  be given to
          checkaddr on the standard input, one address per line.   The
          latter  mode  is use for checking the addresses in a mailing
          list by saying ``checkaddr < mailing-list-file''.  checkaddr
          announces  each  address  on a separate line and follows the
          address with its status (normally ``OK'').   checkaddr  uses
          submit(ADM) to do the address verification.

          If the -w  option  is  given,  checkaddr  causes  submit  to
          generate  a detailed submission tracing.  This can sometimes
          be useful to help find problems in alias  files  or  mailing
          lists.
