resend(C)                       19 June 1992                       resend(C)


 Name

    resend - redistribute mail using the Resent- notation

 Syntax

    resend [ -rw ] [ --subargs ] addresses [ -t addresses ] [ -c addresses ]

 Description

    The resend command is responsible for taking as input a standard mail
    message, adding the various Resent- components to it, and then handing it
    over to submit(ADM).

    The usual method of operation is to pipe a message into resend and supply
    the addresses to which to resend the message on the command line.  The
    default behavior can be changed with the following flags:

    -r    This specifies that error returns for this message are not
          required.

    -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 --.

    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 pre-
    fixing 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.
