DESCRIPTION


The mpack program encodes the the named file in one or more MIME messages. The resulting
messages are mailed to one or more recipients, written to a named file or set of files, or
posted to a set of newsgroups.

OPTIONS

Disposition is inline.

-s subject
Set the Subject header field to Subject. By default, mpack will prompt for the
contents of the subject header.

-d descriptionfile
Include the contents of the file descriptionfile in an introductory section at the
beginning of the first generated message.

-m maxsize
Split the message (if necessary) into partial messages, each not exceeding maxsize
characters. The default limit is the value of the SPLITSIZE environment variable,
or no limit if the environment variable does not exist. Specifying a maxsize of 0
means there is no limit to the size of the generated message.

-c content-type
Label the included file as being of MIME type content-type, which must be a subtype
of application, audio, image, or video. If this switch is not given, mpack
examines the file to determine its type.

-o outputfile
Write the generated message to the file outputfile. If the message has to be
split, the partial messages will instead be written to the files outputfile.01,
outputfile.02, etc.

-n newsgroups
Post the generated message(s) to the comma-separated netnews newsgroups.

file Encode the named file.

address ...
Mail the generated messages to the specified addresses.
