NAME
       ezmlm-send - distribute a message to a mailing list

SYNOPSIS
       ezmlm-send dir

DESCRIPTION
       ezmlm-send reads a mail message and sends it to the mailing list stored
       in dir.  If dir/archived exists, ezmlm-send records a copy of the
       message in the dir/archive directory.

       At the beginning of the message, ezmlm-send prints a new Mailing-List
       field with the contents of dir/mailinglist.  It rejects the message if
       there is already a Mailing-List field.

       ezmlm-send then prints all the new fields listed in dir/headeradd,
       followed by an appropriate Delivered-To line.

       ezmlm-send deletes any incoming fields with names listed in
       dir/headerremove.

       ezmlm-send does not distribute bounce messages: if the environment
       variable SENDER is set, and is either empty or #@[], ezmlm-send rejects
       the message.

SUBLISTS
       If dir/sublist exists, ezmlm-send changes its behavior in several ways.

       First, if SENDER is set, and the first line of dir/sublist has the form
       parent@parenthost, ezmlm-send insists that SENDER have the form
       parent...@parenthost.

       Second, ezmlm-send demands that the message already have a Mailing-List
       field.

       Third, ezmlm-send does not add its own Mailing-List field.
