NAME
       rmail - handle remote mail received via uucp

SYNOPSIS
       rmail [-D domain] [-T] user ...

DESCRIPTION
       Rmail  interprets  incoming  mail  received  via  uucp(1),  collapsing
       ''From'' lines in the form generated by mail.local(8)  into  a  single
       line  of  the  form  ''return-path!sender'', and passing the processed
       mail on to sendmail(8).

       Rmail is explicitly designed for use with uucp and sendmail.

   Flags
       -D     Use the specified domain  instead  of  the  default  domain  of
              ''UUCP''.

       -T     Turn on debugging.

SEE ALSO

BUGS
