From: donadio@mxd120.rh.psu.edu (Matthew Donadio) Subject: ANNOUNCE: Deliver available for Linux Date: Tue, 8 Dec 1992 06:30:00 GMT
I have uploaded deliver.TZ to sunsite.unc.edu in the
/pub/Linux/Incoming directory. Here is the accompanying
README.linux file:
=====
What is deliver? This is from the README:
=============================================================================
WHAT IS DELIVER?
Deliver is a program which delivers electronic mail once it has arrived
at a given machine.
=============================================================================
This is my port of Deliver to linux. I use it with the version of elm
and sendmail that Nathan Laredo (nathan@laredo.eas.gatech.edu) put on
sunsite.unc.edu. He was also kind enough to put up a version of
delivermail, but I couldn't get it to work. It compiled rather cleanly;
I only made a few changes. You might want to browse though the Makefile
and config.h, though, and change a few pathnames. I also used the adage
"When in doubt, comment it out!" so I don't make any guarantees that this
works and I take no responsibility if something Bad(tm) happens. I
included the source that was used to create the executabes in this tar file.
I would include diffs against the original source, but that distribution
had a bunch of patches that needed to be applied already. You can get
the virgin source that I used from:
wuarchive.wustl.edu:/mirrors/unix-c/mail/deliver.tar-z
If it matters, I used GCC 2.2.2d with 4.1 jump libs.
How to install:
Either do a make install
or
cp deliver /bin/
chown root.mail /bin/deliver
chmod 4711 /bin/deliver
cp header /bin/header
chmod 755 /bin/header
You also have to change one line in your sendmail.cf file. Change this line:
Mlocal, P=/bin/mail, F=rlsDFMmn, S=10, R=20, A=mail $u
to:
Mlocal, P=/bin/deliver, F=rlsDFMmn, S=10, R=20, A=deliver $u
If you have trouble with sendmail.cf, I suggest that you do what I did:
borrow one from another machine that you use. If you are at a university,
you probably won't have to make any drastic changes. Nathan included one
in his distribution, also.
Any comment, suggestions, or flames can be directed to me.

^---- I didn't choose this dorky name,
I wanted groovy. :(
If for some reason this mail bounces send it to either
donadio@wilbur.psu.edu <--- SparcII, cool, but slow
mxd120@psuvm.psu.edu <--- VM/CMS, blech!
