ezmlm-send(1)

NAME
ezmlm-send - distribute a message to a mailing list

SYNOPSIS
ezmlm-send dir

DESCRIPTION
ezmlm-send reads a mail message and sends it to the mailing list stored in dir. If dir/archived exists, ezmlm-send records a copy of the message in the dir/archive directory. At the beginning of the message, ezmlm-send prints a new Mailing-List field with the contents of dir/mailinglist. It rejects the message if there is already a Mailing-List field. ezmlm-send then prints all the new fields listed in dir/headeradd, followed by an appropriate Delivered-To line. ezmlm-send deletes any incoming fields with names listed in dir/headerremove. ezmlm-send does not distribute bounce messages: if the environment variable SENDER is set, and is either empty or #@[], ezmlm-send rejects the message.

SUBLISTS
If dir/sublist exists, ezmlm-send changes its behavior in several ways. First, if SENDER is set, and the first line of dir/sublist has the form parent@parenthost, ezmlm-send insists that SENDER have the form parent...@parenthost. Second, ezmlm-send demands that the message already have a Mailing-List field. Third, ezmlm-send does not add its own Mailing-List field.
