GETMAIL.EXE 1.00 - 17 DEC 1991
1. What is GETMAIL
Getmail is a short program that checks all servers your computer is
logged into for mail addressed to your login name. All these messages are
then copied into one file. The name of this file is specified on the command
line. The syntax is getmail [pathname]. Getmail inserts the following lines
into this file:
Message from:
From Server:
Comment:
Before each message. Getmail does not delete messages from the mail queue.
Getmail returns an error level equal to the number of messages copied.
2. How do I install GETMAIL.EXE?
Copy Getmail unto your hard drive.
3. How do I use GETMAIL?
After Logging into all servers with your individual user name, run:
GETMAIL pathname ie GETMAIL test
Will look at all servers on your system that have a mail resource and
copy all messages addressed to you (Getmail supports wildcard searches so
mail address to * will be copied as well) and copies the messages in to
the file specified on the command line.
