3 public-inbox-mda - mail delivery agent for public-inbox
7 public-inbox-mda </path/to/RFC2822_message
11 Mail Delivery Agent (MDA) for public-inbox installations.
12 Each system user may have their own public-inbox instances.
13 This may be invoked via L<procmail(1)> or similar tools.
15 By default, it relies on L<spamc(1)> for filtering mail,
16 but may be disabled via
17 L<public-inbox-config(5)/publicinboxmda.spamcheck>
25 By default, public-inbox-mda does some simple checks before
26 invoking L<spamc(1)> since it is intended to receive mail before
27 it goes to a mailing list.
29 However, some users prefer to use public-inbox-mda to mirror
30 mailing lists. This option exists to support those users.
32 Using this option, the following prechecks are disabled:
34 * multiple Message-IDs
35 * non-existent Message-IDs
36 * Message-IDs longer than 244 characters long
37 * From: header shorter than 3 characters
38 * Subject: header shorter than 2 characters
39 * unusable Date: headers
40 * inbox address specified in To: or Cc: header
48 =item ORIGINAL_RECIPIENT
50 The original recipient email address, set by the MTA. Postfix
51 sets it by default, untested on other MTAs.
53 This does not have to be set if relying on C<publicinbox.$NAME.listid>
54 directives configured in L<public-inbox-config(5)>.
58 Per-user config file parseable by L<git-config(1)>.
59 See L<public-inbox-config(5)>.
