[comp.unix.questions] rmail

Would it be possible to obtain a source copy of an old rmail program?
I need to rewrite Sys V. to handle a Berkeley like forward mechanism
among other things.

	Could anybody explain me what is the calling sequence and stdin
format for `rmail`.
	Why when I do `rmail x < file` the file is not mailed to user x
but if I do  `rmail bc-cis!x <file` everything is OK? (bc-cis is my uucp
name)

	Thanks,
