SYSTEM_MAIL

SYSTEM_MAIL_FLAGS

# VMS:
# ===
# The mail command and qualifiers are defined in userdefs.h.  Lynx
# will spawn a subprocess to send replies and error messages.  The
# command, and qualifiers (if any), can be re-defined here.  If
# you use PMDF then headers will we passed via a header file.
# If you use "generic" VMS MAIL, the subject will be passed on the
# command line via a /subject="SUBJECT" qualifier, and inclusion
# of other relevant headers may not be possible.
# If your mailer uses another syntax, some hacking of the mailform()
# mailmsg() and reply_by_mail() functions in LYMail.c, and send_file_to_mail()
# function in LYPrint.c, may be required.
#
#
# Examples:
#SYSTEM_MAIL:PMDF SEND
#SYSTEM_MAIL_FLAGS:/headers
#
#
# Examples:
#SYSTEM_MAIL:MAIL
#SYSTEM_MAIL_FLAGS:
#
# Unix:
#======
# The mail path and flags normally are defined for sendmail (or submit
# with MMDF) in userdefs.h.  You can change them here, but should first
# read the zillions of CERT advisories about security problems with Unix
# mailers.
#
#
# Examples:
#SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/mmdf/bin/submit
#SYSTEM_MAIL_FLAGS:-mlruxto,cc\*
#
#
# Examples:
#SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/sbin/sendmail
#SYSTEM_MAIL_FLAGS:-t -oi
#
#
# Examples:
#SYSTEM_MAIL:/usr/lib/sendmail
#SYSTEM_MAIL_FLAGS:-t -oi
# Win32:
#=======
# Please read sendmail.txt in the LYNX_W32.ZIP distribution
#
#SYSTEM_MAIL:sendmail -f me@my.host -h my.host -r my.smtp.mailer -m SMTP

MAIL_ADRS

# VMS ONLY:
# ========
# MAIL_ADRS is defined in userdefs.h and normally is structured for PMDF's
# IN%"INTERNET_ADDRESS" scheme.  The %s is replaced with the address given
# by the user.  If you are using a different Internet mail transport, change
# the IN appropriately (e.g., to SMTP, MX, or WINS).
#
#MAIL_ADRS:"IN%%""%s"""

USE_FIXED_RECORDS

# VMS ONLY:
# ========
# If USE_FIXED_RECORDS is set to TRUE here or in userdefs.h, Lynx will
# convert 'd'ownloaded binary files to FIXED 512 record format before saving
# them to disk or acting on a DOWNLOADER option.  If set to FALSE, the
# headers of such files will indicate that they are Stream_LF with Implied
# Carriage Control, which is incorrect, and can cause downloading software
# to get confused and unhappy.  If you do set it FALSE, you can use the
# FIXED512.COM command file, which is included in this distribution, to do
# the conversion externally.
#
#USE_FIXED_RECORDS:TRUE
