comsatd
Comsatd
uses following option groups: See mailbox (Editor’s note: dangling link),
See daemon (Editor’s note: dangling link), See logging (Editor’s note: dangling link).
Convert the configuration file file to the new
format. File must be a comsatd
configuration file in
Mailutils v. 1.x format. The converted file is printed on the standard
output. For example, the following command can be used to convert old
comsatd
configuration file to new format:
$ comsatd --convert-config=/etc/comsatd.conf > /etc/mailutils.d/comsatd
Run as a standalone daemon.
The server is started from /etc/inetd.conf file:
comsat dgram udp wait root /usr/sbin/comsatd \ comsatd -c /etc/comsat.conf
This is the default operation mode.
Test mode. In this mode, comsatd
takes two arguments:
URL of a mailbox and QID of the message from that
mailbox, e.g.:
$ comsatd --test /var/mail/root 34589
