The purpose of movemail
, as its name implies, is to move mail
from one location to another. For example, the following invocation:
movemail /var/mail/smith INBOX
moves messages from file /var/mail/smith to file INBOX.
You will probably never have to run this program manually. It is
intended as a replacement for movemail
from GNU Emacs. The
movemail
program is run by Emacs Rmail
module. See Rmail in Reading Mail with Rmail, for detailed
description of Rmail
interface.
Mailutils version of movemail
is fully
backward-compatible with its Emacs predecessor, so it should run
flawlessly with older versions of Emacs. Emacs versions
starting from 22.1 contain improved Rmail
interface and
are able to take advantage of all new features mailutils
movemail
provides.
