+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B rcvpack
+program will append a copy of the message to the file
+listed on its command line.
+.PP
+If the
+.B \-mbox
+switch is given (the default), then the messages are
+separated using mbox (uucp) style delimiters.  This is the format used
+by most mail clients (elm, mailx, etc.).
+.PP
+If the
+.B \-mmdf
+switch is given, then the messages are separated by
+mmdf style delimiters.  Each message in the file is separated by four
+CTRL\-A's and a newline.
+.PP
+.B rcvpack
+will correctly lock and unlock the file to serialize
+access to the file, when running multiple copies of
+.B rcvpack .
+.PP
+In general, its use is obsoleted by the
+.B file
+action of
+.BR slocal ,
+although it might still have occasional uses in various
+shell scripts.
