Emil is a filter for converting Internet Messages. It supports
|
|
|
|
three basic formats: MIME, SUN Mailtool and RFC822. It can be
|
|
|
|
used with sendmail, as a loopback mailer, as a prefilter or
|
|
|
|
backend program with a mail client program, or as a plain
|
|
|
|
filter. Conversion can be configured by a configuration file,
|
|
|
|
emil.cf, using sender, recipient and recipient host as input
|
|
|
|
parameters or by command line arguments.
