deliver - Delivers mail to an IMAP mailbox SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/deliver [-d] [-r address] [-f address] [-m mailbox] [-a auth-id] [-e] [-q] [-F flag]... [userid]... deliver -E days OPTIONS
Ignored for compatibility with /bin/mail Inserts a Return-Path: header containing address Inserts a Return-Path: header containing address Delivers to mailbox. If any userids are specified, attempts to deliver to user.userid.mailbox for each userid. If the access control list (ACL) on any such mailbox does not grant the sender the right to post mail (p right) or if -m is not specified, then delivers to the INBOX for the userid , regardless of the ACL on the INBOX. If no userids are specified, the deliver command attempts to deliver to mailbox. If the ACL on mailbox does not grant the sender the p right, the delivery fails. Specifies the authorization id of the sender. Defaults to "anonymous". Enables duplicate deliv- ery suppression. This suppresses delivery of the message to a mailbox if a message with the same message-id (or resent-message-id) is recorded as having already been delivered to the mailbox. Records the mailbox and message-id/resent-message-id of all successful deliveries. Delivers a message even when the receiving mailbox is over its quota. Sets the system option or keyword flag on the delivered message. Removes the duplicate delivery database of entries older than days. DESCRIPTION
The deliver command reads a message from the standard input and delivers it to one or more IMAP mailboxes. The deliver command reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf file. Depending on the setting of the reject8bit field in the imapd.conf file, deliver either rejects messages with 8-bit-set characters in the headers or changes these characters to X. FILE

deliver - deliver mail to an IMAP mailbox SYNOPSIS
deliver [ -C config-file ] [ -d ] [ -r address ] [ -f address ] [ -m mailbox ] [ -a auth-id ] [ -q ] [ userid ]... deliver [ -C config-file ] -l DESCRIPTION
Deliver reads a message from the standard input and delivers it to one or more IMAP mailboxes. Deliver reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5) file unless specified otherwise by -C. OPTIONS
-C config-file Read configuration options from config-file. -d Ignored for compatability with /bin/mail. -r address Insert a Return-Path: header containing address -f address Insert a Return-Path: header containing address -m mailbox Deliver to mailbox. If any userids are specified, attempts to deliver to user.userid.mailbox for each userid. If the ACL on any such mailbox does not grant the sender the "p" right or if -m is not specified, then delivers to the INBOX for the userid, regard- less of the ACL on the INBOX. If no userids are specified, attempts to deliver to mailbox. If the ACL on mailbox does not grant the sender the "p" right, the delivery fails. -a auth-id Specify the authorization id of the sender. Defaults to "anonymous". -q Deliver message even when receiving mailbox is over quota. -l Accept messages using the LMTP protocol. NOTES
Depending on the setting of reject8bit in imapd.conf(5), deliver either rejects/accepts messages with 8-bit-set characters in the headers. If we accept messages with 8-bit-set characters in the headers, then depending on the setting of munge8bit, these characters are either left un-touched or changed to `X'. This is because such characters can't be interpreted since the character set is not known, although some communities not well-served by US-ASCII assume that those characters can be used to represent characters not present in US-ASCII. A method for encoding 8-bit-set characters is provided by RFC 2047. FILES
