NAME¶
queue-pr - incoming mail control for GNATS
SYNOPSIS¶
- queue-pr
- [ -q | --queue ] [ -r |
--run ]
[ -f filename | --file=filename ]
[ -m kbytes | --max-size=kbytes ]
[ -d database | --database=database ]
[ -h | --help ] [ -V | --version
]
DESCRIPTION¶
`queue-pr -q' should run through a
pipe(2V) via the mail
aliases(5) mechanism to automatically place incoming bug reports in a
queue directory for
GNATS.
Run
`queue-pr -r' via
cron(8) to periodically empty the
GNATS queue, filing new bug reports in the database.
Always use one of
-q | --queue or -r | --run
(but not both), in each call to queue-pr. These are mutually
exclusive functions in order to avoid collisions.
OPTIONS¶
- -q, --queue
- Accept standard input as an incoming mail message, placing this message in
an incrementally numbered file in the database subdirectory
gnats-queue for future handling.
- -r, --run
- Redirect files from the database subdirectory gnats-queue to
file-pr(8) which files and creates index entries for each.
- -f filename or --file=filename
- Treat filename as input rather than reading from standard input
(used with the --queue option).
- -m kbytes, --max-size=kbytes
- Do not process messages larger than kbytes kilobytes in size. Files larger
than the limit are left for human intervention.
- -d database or --database=databasename
- Used with the --queue or --run options, use the database
named database rather than the database default or the
database specified by the GNATSDB environment variable.
- -h, --help
- Displays a short usage message.
- -V, --version
- Displays the queue-pr version number.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES¶
The
GNATSDB environment variable is used to determine which database to
use. For a local database, it contains the name of the database to access. If
GNATSDB is not set, the database named
default is used.
