mlmmj-receive − receive mails for an mlmmj managed mailinglist
mlmmj-receive −L /path/to/listdir [−h] [−V] [−P] [−F]

−h: This help |

−F: Don’t fork in the background (debugging only) |

|
−L: Full path to list directory |

−P: Don’t execute mlmmj-process (debugging only) |

−V: Print version |
The mlmmj-receive binary is the one specified in the mailserver configuration file (aliases file), which writes the mail to the <listdir>/incoming directory and invokes mlmmj-process unless the −P option is specified. On systems using mailservers supporting the /etc/aliases file, a line to activate an mlmmj managed mailinglist would look like this:
list: "|/usr/bin/mlmmj-receive −L /var/spool/mlmmj/list/"
It’s very important to specify the full path to the binary, or the mailinglist will not function.
When the −F option is used, it will not fork in the background. The reason it forks is that if delivery of a mail takes longer time than the mail server will allow a command to be idle before presumed dead, the mail server would kill it.
