BUILDD-MAIL(1)

NAME
buildd-mail - mail answer processor for buildd

SYNOPSIS
buildd-mail

VERSION
This man page documents the packaged version of buildd-mail. This version is maintained by the buildd-tools project developers on Alioth (https://alioth.debian.org/projects/buildd-tools/).

There is also a version maintained by Ryan Murray which is adapted to build daemon needs, with similar functionality. This version should be equally capable of working in a buildd setup, but has a number of enhancements aimed at making it suitable for use by end-users.

DESCRIPTION
buildd-mail processes incoming mail for the buildd user.

SETUP
The buildd user should have a file ~/.forward with the following contents:

|/usr/bin/buildd-mail

This will ensure all incoming mail will be processed using buildd-mail.

FILES

/etc/buildd/buildd.conf
    Configuration, maintained by the system administrator. This may be used to override the defaults.

~/.builddrc
    User-specific configuration.

~/.forward
    Mail forwarding configuration.
