The message’s envelope recipient is _l_o_c_a_l_@_d_o_m_a_i_n. qqmmaaiill--llooccaall records _l_o_c_a_l_@_d_o_m_a_i_n in a new DDeelliivveerreedd--TToo header field. If exactly the same DDeelliivveerreedd--TToo:: _l_o_c_a_l_@_d_o_m_a_i_n already appears in the header, qqmmaaiill--llooccaall bounces the message, to prevent mail forwarding loops. The message’s envelope sender is _s_e_n_d_e_r. qqmmaaiill--llooccaall records _s_e_n_d_e_r in a new RReettuurrnn--PPaatthh header field. _h_o_m_e_d_i_r is the user’s home directory. It must be an absolute directory name. _d_a_s_h and _e_x_t identify the ..qqmmaaiill_d_a_s_h_e_x_t file used by qqmmaaiill--llooccaall; see ddoott--qqmmaaiill((55)). Normally _d_a_s_h is either empty or a lone hyphen. If it is empty, qqmmaaiill--llooccaall treats a nonexistent ..qqmmaaiill_e_x_t the same way as an empty ..qqmmaaiill_e_x_t: namely, following the delivery instructions in _d_e_f_a_u_l_t_d_e_l_i_v_e_r_y. The standard input for qqmmaaiill--llooccaall must be a seekable file, so that qqmmaaiill--llooccaall can read it more than once. OOPPTTIIOONNSS --nn Instead of reading and delivering the message, print a descrip- tion of the delivery instructions. --NN (Default.) Read and deliver the message. EEXXIITT CCOODDEESS 0 if the delivery is completely successful; nonzero if any delivery instruction failed. Exit code 111 indicates temporary failure.
