RESEND(C) UNIX System V
Name
resend - redistribute mail using the Resent- notation.
Syntax
resend [-rw] [--subargs] addresses [-t addresses]
[-c addresses]
Description
resend is responsible for taking as input a standard mail
message, adding the various Resent- components to it, and
then handing it over to submit.
The usual method of operation is to pipe a message into
resend and supply on the command line the addresses to
resend the message to. Aliases defined through the personal
alias mechanism in mail, may also be used with resend. See
mail(C). The default behavior can be changed by using the
following flags:
-r This specifies that error returns for this message are
not wanted, if the message gets into problems with
delivery, you couldn't care less.
-w This flag enables you to follow the delivery attempt.
Submit and its children will print out what they are
doing.
-- Any argument starting in this manner is passed directly
to submit after losing the --. You had better know what
you are doing!
After the flags have been processed, the address lists for
the message are built up. Normally all addresses are put
onto one Resent-To: line, but they can be broken up onto
several Resent-To: lines by prefixing a block of addresses
with the -t flag. Alternatively the -c flag will start
building up a list of Resent-Cc: addresses. resend looks
after all the other headers, such as Resent-Date, Resent-
From etc.
