DBMAIL-SMTP(1)                                                  DBMAIL-SMTP(1)

NAME
       dbmail-smtp - inserts messages into the DBMail mailsystem.

SYNOPSIS
       dbmail-smtp [-t headerfield] [-d addresses] [-u usernames] [-m|-M
       mailboxname] [-r return path] [-f configFile]

DESCRIPTION
       The dbmail-smtp program inserts messages from the commandline or from
       any MTA into the DBMail mailsystem. The program reads from standard
       input.

OPTIONS
       -t headerfield
           Deliver messages to the recipient MIME header specified in
           headerfield. The default header to use is the "Delivered-To:"
           header.

       -d addresses...
           Deliver messages to the recipients specified by addresses. This
           option is mostly used for delivery from an MTA. Separate multiple
           addresses by spaces.

       -u usernames...
           Deliver messages straight to the given username. Separate multiple
           usernames with spaces.

       -m mailboxname
           Deliver messages to mailbox mailboxname of the recipient. If this
           mailbox does not exist yet, it is created. Sieve scripts will be
           run normally, possibly altering the destination mailbox.

       -M mailboxname
           Deliver messages to mailbox mailboxname of the recipient. If this
           mailbox does not exist yet, it is created. Sieve scripts are not
           run. Permission checks are not performed for mailbox creation or
           message delivery.

       -r returnpath
           Set return path for bounces and other error reports to return path.

COMMON OPTIONS
       -f configfile
           Specify an alternate config file. The utilities are currently
           hardcoded to use /etc/dbmail.conf for their configs, and will halt
           if the config file cannot be found. Use the -f configfile option to
           specify your system's preferred config file location.

       -q
           Quietly skip interactive prompts and helpful status messages which
           would otherwise be printed to stdout. Use two -q's to silence
           errors which would otherwise be printed to stderr.

       -v
           Operate verbosely. Some of the utilities in the DBMail suite can
           take two -v's for extra verbosity. Those which don't understand
           this convention won't complain about having the extra -v and will
           simply operate at their normal verbosity.

       -V
           Show the version and copyright, then exit.

       -h
           Show a brief summary of options, then exit.
