# fetchmaildistrib --- Distribute central fetchmail knowledge.
#
# The central fetchmail database, /etc/fetchmail, contains all accounts that
# are to be fetched by the root's daemon. Often, a user desires quicker
# access (e.g., when testing some email path). In such cases, the destination
# user (marked as is USER here in the poll lines) should set up a ~/.fetchmailrc
# for himself. This scripts generates such lines from the central file.
#
# By Rick van Rein.

# From stdin, select poll lines for user $1
function selectuser () {
	grep ^poll | grep "is $1 here"
}

---------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Installation: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Installation is as simple as it could be. Just create the directory /usr/local/gotmail and copy all files to it. Ready. If you decide to choose an other directory to copy the files to, don't forget to change the path in the scripts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Usage: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GetMail starts with: getmail <option> options: clear - stops fetchmail and kills the logfile fetch - starts fetchmail got - starts gotmail goth - starts gotmail html send - sends all mail from the mailqueue status - tails the logfile start - starts fetchmail and tails the logfile stop - stops fetchmail -v - prints GetMails version number GotMail can be startet without any parameters. It then prints a statistic on the console. The only parameters so far are: html - prints the output to an html file specified in gotmail.conf -v - prints GotMails version number ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Configuration ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GotMail is configured by a file named gotmail.conf either in the user's home dir, in /etc or in /usr/local/gotmail. gotmail.conf itself is a shell script. It just exports some variables to the environment. So it's syntax is like this: export <OPTION>=<VALUE> Remember not to put spaces between <OPTION>=<VALUE> !! You have the folllowing options: GOTM_ERR yes|no print error messages? GOTM_MSG yes|no print mail stats? GOTM_TIM yes|no print start/stop stats? GOTM_HED yes|no print a header? Special HTML options: GOTM_BGCOL hex color backgroundcolor GOTM_TXCOL hex color textcolor GOTM_ERRCOL hex color color of error messages GOTM_TIMCOL hex color color of start/stop stats GOTM_MSGCOL hex color color of mail stats GOTM_HTMLFILE filename filename for html output -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
