resend(C)


resend -- redistribute mail using the Resent- notation

Syntax

resend [ -rw ] [ --subargs ] addresses [ -t addresses ] [ -c addresses ]

Description

The resend command is responsible for taking as input a standard mail message, adding the various Resent- components to it, and then handing it over to submit(ADM).

The usual method of operation is to pipe a message into resend and supply the addresses to which to resend the message on the command line. The default behavior can be changed with the following flags:


-r
This specifies that error returns for this message are not required.

-w
This flag enables you to follow the delivery attempt. submit and its children will print out what they are doing.

--
Any argument starting in this manner is passed directly to submit after losing the --.
After the flags have been processed, the address lists for the message are built up. Normally all addresses are put onto one ``Resent-To:'' line, but they can be broken up onto several ``Resent-To:'' lines by prefixing a block of addresses with the -t flag. Alternatively the -c flag will start building up a list of ``Resent-Cc:'' addresses. resend looks after all the other headers, such as ``Resent-Date'', ``Resent-From'' etc.
