- qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt invokes qqmmaaiill--sseenndd, qqmmaaiill--llssppaawwnn, qqmmaaiill--
- rrssppaawwnn, and qqmmaaiill--cclleeaann. These four daemons cooperate to
- deliver messages from the queue.
-
- qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt arranges for qqmmaaiill--sseenndd's activity record to
- be sent to qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt's output. See qqmmaaiill--lloogg((55)) for the
- format of the activity record. Other than this, qqmmaaiill--
- ssttaarrtt does not print anything, even on failure.
-
- If _a_l_i_a_s_e_m_p_t_y is supplied, qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt passes it to qqmmaaiill--
- llssppaawwnn.
-
- If _l_o_g_g_e_r is supplied, qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt invokes _l_o_g_g_e_r with the
- given arguments, and feeds qqmmaaiill--sseenndd's activity record
- through _l_o_g_g_e_r.
-
- Environment variables given to qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt will eventually
- be passed on to qqmmaaiill--llooccaall, so make sure to clean up the
- environment if you run qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt manually:
-
- # env - PATH="/ADE/var/qmail/bin:$PATH"
- qmail-start ./Mailbox splogger qmail &
- (all on one line)
-
- qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt sets the uid and gid of each daemon properly.
-
- Note that qqmmaaiill--sseenndd normally juggles several simultaneous
- deliveries. To reduce qqmmaaiill--sseenndd's impact on other pro-
- grams, you can run qqmmaaiill--ssttaarrtt with a low priority.
