PROGRAM:

NAME


rcvtty - report new mail

SYNOPSIS


/usr/lib/mh/rcvtty [command] [-form formatfile] [-format string] [-width columns] [-bell |
-nobell] [-newline | -nonewline] [-biff] [-version] [-help]

DESCRIPTION


The rcvtty can be used to report new mail. It is used primarily in conjunction with mail
filtering agents such as slocal or procmail.

The rcvtty program executes the named command with the message as its standard input, and
writes the resulting output on your terminal.

Alternately, if no command is specified (or is bogus), then rcvtty will instead write a
one-line scan listing. The default output format of this scan listing may be overridden
by using either the -form formatfile or -format string option, similar to the equivalent
options for scan and inc. See mh-format(5) for details.

A newline is output before the message output, and the terminal bell is rung after the
output. The -nonewline and -nobell options will inhibit these functions.

The switch -width columns may be given to specify the width of the scan line. The default
is to use the width of the terminal.

In addition to the standard format escapes described in mh-format(5), rcvtty also
recognizes the following additional component escapes:

Escape Returns Description
body string the (compressed) first part of the body
dtimenow date the current date
folder string the name of the current folder

By default, rcvtty will send its output to every terminal on the local machine that is
owned by current user, and that has given write permission as granted by the command
mesg(1). If the option -biff is given, then rcvtty will obey the notification status set
by the command biff(1) instead.
