# $Id: news2mail.in 10076 2016-10-08 20:37:36Z iulius $
# News to mail channel backend.
#
# INN gives us
#     @token@ lists
# for each article that needs to be mailed.  We invoke sm on the
# localhost to get the actual article and stuff it down sendmail's throat.
# 
# This program expects to find a file that maps listname to listaddrs:
#     <pathetc>/news2mail.cf
# which must contain address mapping lines such as:
#
#    list-big-red-ants	big-red-ants@lists.ucsd.edu	news+big-red-ants@local.news.server.org
#
# where the first token is the name fed to us from the INN's newsfeeds file.
# The second token is the actual address sendmail ships the article to.
# The third token is optional:  it sets the envelope-from address.
#
# In the INN's newsfeeds file, you need to have a channel feed:
#     news2mail!:!*:Ac,Tc,Wn*:<pathbin>/news2mail
# and a site for each of the various mailing lists you're feeding,
# such as
#     list-big-red-ants/lists.ucsd.edu:!*,rec.pets.red-ants:Ap,Tm:news2mail!
#
# Error handling is nearly nonexistent.
#
#     - Brian Kantor for the initial script.  (UCSD, August 1998.)
#     - D. Stussy added support for the third optional token for envelope-from
#       address.  (June 2008.)
