check-sendfile
DESCRIPTION¶
The
check-sendfile command tests if there are files hosed in the user's
sendfile spool area. If so he will be informed about the files.
This command should be started from /etc/profile to give all users a chance to
notices that some files have arrived in their absence. As the defauld
behaviour of sendfiled is to write a note on the user's tty he won't notice
receiption if he's not logged in. The lack of need to be logged in is one of
sendfile's advantages.

- /var/spool/sendfile/$user
