NAME
innmail - Simple mail-sending program
SYNOPSIS
innmail [-h] [-ssubject] address [address ...]
DESCRIPTION
innmail is a Perl script intended to provide the non-interactive
mail-sending functionality of mail(1) while avoiding nasty security
problems. It takes the body of a mail message on standard input and sends
it to the specified addresses by invoking the value of mta in
inn.conf.
At least one address (formatted for the MTA specified in inn.conf if it
matters) is required. innmail will sanitize the addresses so that they
contain only alphanumerics and the symbols "@", ".", "-", "+", "_",
and "%".
innmail was written to be suitable for the mailcmd setting in
inn.conf.
OPTIONS
-h
Gives usage information.
-ssubject
Sets the Subject: header of the message. A warning is issued if this
option is omitted.
EXAMPLES
This sends a one-line message to the local user "joe":
echo "A one-line message." | innmail -s "Simple message" joe
innmail by default is used by INN for sending nightly reports and
control message reports.
BUGS
innmail fails on addresses that begin with "-", although one might
hope that the news server will not need to contact any such addresses.
There are many ``correct'' addresses that will be silently modified by the
sanitization process. A news administrator should be careful to use
particularly sane addresses if they may be passed to innmail.
