In addition, it provides a set of -.i ed -\c -like commands for manipulating messages and sending mail. -.i Mail -offers the user simple editing capabilities to ease the composition -of outgoing messages, as well as providing the ability to define and send -to names which address groups of users. Finally, -.i Mail -is able to send and receive messages across such networks as the -ARPANET, UUCP, and Berkeley network. -.pp -This document describes how to use the -.i Mail -program to send and receive messages. The reader is not assumed to -be familiar with other message handling systems, but should be -familiar with the \s-2UNIX\s0\** -.(f -\** \s-1UNIX\s0 is a trademark of Bell Laboratories. -.)f -shell, the text editor, and some of the common \s-2UNIX\s0 commands. -.q "The \s-2UNIX\s0 Programmer's Manual," -.q "An Introduction to Csh," -and -.q "Text Editing with Ex and Vi" -can be consulted for more information on these topics. -.pp -Here is how messages are handled: -the mail system accepts incoming -.i messages -for you from other people -and collects them in a file, called your -.i "system mailbox" . -When you login, the system notifies you if there are any messages -waiting in your system mailbox. If you are a -.i csh -user, you will be notified when new mail arrives if you inform -the shell of the location of your mailbox. On version 7 systems, -your system mailbox is located in the directory /usr/spool/mail -in a file with your login name. If your login name is -.q sam, -then you can make -.i csh -notify you of new mail by including the following line in your .cshrc -file: -.(l -set mail=/usr/spool/mail/sam -.)l -When you read your mail using -.i Mail , -it reads your system mailbox and separates that file into the -individual messages that have been sent to you. You can then -read, reply to, delete, or save these messages. -Each message is marked with its author and the date they sent it. |
