RNMAIL(1)               COMMAND REFERENCE               RNMAIL(1)



NAME
     Rnmail - a program for replying via mail

SYNOPSIS
     Rnmail destinationlist
       or
     Rnmail -h headerfile [oldarticle]
       or
     Rnmail

DESCRIPTION
     Rnmail is a friendly interface for mailing replies to news
     articles.  It will ask several questions, then allow you to
     enter your letter, and then mail it off.  If you type h and
     a carriage return at any point, Rnmail will tell you what it
     wants to know.

     The -h form is used when invoked from rn.  If your editor
     can edit multiple files, and you want the article to which
     you are replying to show up as an alternate file, define the
     environment variable MAILPOSTER as "Rnmail -h %h %A".  You
     can also modify the the MAILHEADER environment variable to
     change the header file that rn passes to Rnmail.
