PUSH(8) UNIX System Manager's Manual PUSH(8) NNAAMMEE ppuusshh - fetch mail via POP SSYYNNOOPPSSIISS ppuusshh [--44 | ----kkrrbb44] [--55 | ----kkrrbb55] [--vv | ----vveerrbboossee] [--ff | ----ffoorrkk] [--ll | ----lleeaavvee] [----ffrroomm] [--cc | ----ccoouunntt] [----hheeaaddeerrss=_h_e_a_d_e_r_s] [--pp _p_o_r_t_-_s_p_e_c | ----ppoorrtt=_p_o_r_t_-_s_p_e_c] _p_o_-_b_o_x _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN ppuusshh retrieves mail from the post office box _p_o_-_b_o_x, and stores the mail in mbox format in _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e. The _p_o_-_b_o_x can have any of the following for- mats: `hostname:username' `po:hostname:username' `username@hostname' `po:username@hostname' `hostname' `po:username' If no username is specified, ppuusshh assumes that it's the same as on the local machine; _h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e defaults to the value of the MAILHOST environment variable. Supported options: --44, ----kkrrbb44 use Kerberos 4 (if compiled with support for Kerberos 4) --55, ----kkrrbb55 use Kerberos 5 (if compiled with support for Kerberos 5) --ff, ----ffoorrkk fork before starting to delete messages --ll, ----lleeaavvee don't delete fetched mail ----ffrroomm behave like from. --cc, ----ccoouunntt first print how many messages and bytes there are. ----hheeaaddeerrss=_h_e_a_d_e_r_s a list of comma-separated headers that should get printed. --pp _p_o_r_t_-_s_p_e_c, ----ppoorrtt=_p_o_r_t_-_s_p_e_c use this port instead of the default `kpop' or `1109'. The default is to first try Kerberos 5 authentication and then, if that fails, Kerberos 4. EENNVVIIRROONNMMEENNTT MAILHOST points to the post office, if no other hostname is specified. EEXXAAMMPPLLEESS $ push cornfield:roosta ~/.emacs-mail-crash-box tries to fetch mail for the user _r_o_o_s_t_a from the post office at ``cornfield'', and stores the mail in _~_/_._e_m_a_c_s_-_m_a_i_l_-_c_r_a_s_h_-_b_o_x (you are using Gnus, aren't you?) $ push --from -5 havregryn tries to fetch FFrroomm:: lines for current user at post office ``havregryn'' using Kerberos 5.
