kuvert_mta_wrapper(1)
NAME
- kuvert-mta-wrapper - wrapper around your MTA for mail sub
- mission to kuvert(1)
SYNOPSIS
kuvert-mta-wrapper [-options] [args]
DESCRIPTION
- kuvert_mta_wrapper submits an email either directly to your
- MTA or enqueues it for kuvert(1) for further processing.
- kuvert_mta_wrapper should be called by your MUA instead of your
- usual MTA in order to enable kuvert to intercept and process the
- outgoing mails. Please see your MUA's documentation about how to
- override the MTA to be used.
- The decision whether queueing or calling the MTA directly is
- based on the following factors:
- 1. If there are options given other than -bm, -f, -i, -t,
- -v, -oi, -od, -oe, the standard MTA /usr/lib/sendmail is executed
- with the options and arguments given. The result code in this
- case is the one the MTA returns.
- 2. If there is a configuration file ~/.kuvert (See ku
- vert(1) for possible configuration directives) the mail is queued
- for kuvert(1). The options and arguments are ignored. If there
- are problems, an error message is sent to syslog and -1 is re
- turned.
FILES
- ~/.kuvert configuration file for ku
- vert(1) and kuvert_mta_wrapper(1).
- ~/.kuvert_queue the default queue directo
- ry for kuvert(1) if the configuration file does not specify an
- alternative.

BUGS
- The list of allowed options and the MTA for fallback are set
- at compile time. kuvert_mta_wrapper does log only to syslog at
- the moment.
