AIX Version 4.3 Commands Reference, Volume 4
rcvstore Command
Purpose
Incorporates new mail from standard input into a folder.
rcvstore [ +Folder ] [ -create | -nocreate ] [ -sequence Name ] [ -public | -nopublic ] [ -zero | -nozero ]
Description
The rcvstore command adds incoming messages to a specified message directory (a folder). The rcvstore command is not started by the user. The rcvstore command is placed in the $HOME/.maildelivery file called by the /usr/lib/mh/slocal command.
The rcvstore command accepts messages from standard input and places them in a specified folder. Run the rcvstore command on all incoming messages by specifying the rcvstore command in the .maildelivery file.
You can specify rcvstore command flags in the $HOME/.maildelivery file or, as with most MH commands, in the $HOME/.mh_profile file.
Flags

Creates the specified folder in your mail directory if the folder does not exist. This flag is the default. |
| +Folder |
Places the incorporated messages in the specified folder. The default is +inbox. |
| -help |
Lists the command syntax, available switches (toggles), and version information.

|
| -nocreate |
Does not create the specified folder if the folder does not exist. |

| -nozero |
Appends the messages incorporated by the rcvstore command to the specified sequence of messages. This flag is the default. |

| -zero |
Clears the specified sequence of messages before placing the incorporated messages into the sequence. This flag is the default. |
