136 mh-tailor, mtstailor \- system customization for MH message handler
139 \fI@@(MHETCPATH)/mtstailor\fP
141 The file @@(MHETCPATH)/mtstailor defines run-time options for those \fIMH\fR
142 programs which interact (in some form) with the message transport system.
143 At present, these (user) programs are:
144 \fIap\fR, \fIconflict\fR, \fIinc\fR, \fImsgchk\fR,
145 \fImsh\fR, \fIpost\fR, \fIrcvdist\fR, and \fIrcvpack\fR.
147 Each option should be given on a single line. Blank lines
148 and lines which begin with `#' are ignored.
149 The options available along with default values and a description of their
150 meanings are listed below:
156 The host name \fIMH\fR considers local.
157 If not set, depending on the version of UNIX you're running,
158 \fIMH\fR will query the system for this value
159 (e.g., <whoami.h>, gethostname, etc.).
160 This has no equivalent in the \fIMH\fR configuration file.
161 POP client hosts should set this value to the name of the POP service host.
166 If this is set, a `.' followed by this string will be
167 appended to your host name.
168 This might be useful for sites
169 where the host name returned by the system
170 (e.g., <whoami.h>, gethostname, etc.),
171 is not a \*(lqfully qualified domain name\*(rq
172 (i.e., does not contain a `.').
177 The host name \fIMH\fP will give in the
178 SMTP \fBHELO\fP (and \fBEHLO\fP) command, when posting mail.
179 If not set, the host name \fIMH\fR considers local is used
180 (see \*(lqlocalname\*(rq above).
181 If empty, no \fBHELO\fP command will be given.
182 Although the \fBHELO\fP command is required by RFC 821,
183 many SMTP servers do not require it.
185 Early versions of SendMail will fail if the host name
186 given in the \fBHELO\fP command is the local host;
187 later versions of SendMail will complain if you omit the
188 \fBHELO\fP command. If you run SendMail, find out what
189 your system expects and set this field if needed.
194 The name of the local host in the \fIUUCP\fR \*(lqdomain\*(rq.
195 If not set, depending on the version of UNIX you're running,
196 \fIMH\fR will query the system for this value.
197 This has no equivalent in the \fIMH\fR configuration file.

202 The directory where maildrops are kept.

204 This overrides the \*(lqmail\*(rq field in the \fIMH\fR configuration file.
207 mmdflfil: @@(MHDROPFIL)
209 The name of the maildrop file in the directory where maildrops are kept.

219 mmdelim2: \\001\\001\\001\\001\\n

227 Basically, the pw_gecos field in the password file is of the form
230 My Full Name <mailid>
232 The \fIMH\fR internal routines that deal with user and full names will return
233 \*(lqmailid\*(rq and \*(lqMy Full Name\*(rq respectively.
238 The locking discipline to perform.
239 A value of \*(lq0\*(rq means to use kernel-level locking
241 (See below for more details.)
242 On systems compiled without kernel-level locking,
243 standard \fIBellMail\fR locking is used.
244 A value of \*(lq1\*(rq means to use \fIBellMail\fR locking always
245 (the name of the lock is based on the file name).
246 A value of \*(lq2\*(rq means to use \fIMMDF\fR locking always
247 (the name of the lock is based on device/inode pairs).
252 The name of the directory for making locks.
253 If your system isn't configured to use kernel-level locking,
254 then this directory is used when creating locks.
255 If the value is empty,
256 then the directory of the file to be locked is used.

501 A few words on locking:
502 \fIMH\fR has a flexible locking system for making locks on files.
503 There are two \fBmtstailor\fR variables you should be aware of
504 \*(lqlockstyle\*(rq and \*(lqlockldir\*(rq.
505 The first controls the method of locking,
506 the second says where lock files should be created.
508 The \*(lqlockstyle\*(rq variable can take on three values: 0, 1, 2.
509 A value of 0 is useful on systems with kernel-level locking.
510 If you are on a \fBBSD42\fP system, \fIMH\fP assumes
511 you have the \fIflock\fR system call.
513 define \fBFLOCK\fP if you want to use the \fIflock\fP system call;
514 define \fBLOCKF\fP if you want to use the \fIlockf\fP system call;
515 or define \fBFCNTL\fP if you want to use the \fIfcntl\fP system call
516 for kernel-level locking.
517 If you haven't configured \fIMH\fP to use kernel-level locking,
518 a locking style of 0 is considered the same as locking style 1.
520 A value of 1 or 2 specifies that a file should be created whose existence
521 means \*(lqlocked\*(rq and whose non-existence means \*(lqunlocked\*(rq.
522 A value of 1 says to construct the lockname by appending \*(lq.lock\*(rq to
523 the name of the file being locked.
524 A value of 2 says to construct the lockname by looking at the device and
525 inode numbers of the file being locked.
526 If the \*(lqlockldir\*(rq variable is not specified,
527 lock files will be created in the directory where the file being locked
529 Otherwise, lock files will be created in the directory specified by
531 Prior to installing \fIMH\fR,
532 you should see how locking is done at your site,
533 and set the appropriate values.
