736 | Chapter 20: The M (Mail Delivery Agent) Configuration Command
Note that the LOCAL_UUCP mc macro is not intended for casual use. It should be used only to
solve special UUCP needs that cannot be solved using more conventional means.
20.5 Delivery Agent Equates
Recall that the form for the M command is:
Msymname, equate, equate, equate, ...
Each equate expression is of the form:
field=arg
The field is one of those in Table 20-18. Only the first character of the field is recognized.
For example, all of the following are equivalent:
S=21
Sender=21
SenderRuleSet=21
The field is followed by optional whitespace, the mandatory = character, optional
whitespace, and finally the arg. The form of the arg varies depending on the field.
The arg might or might not be required.
Special characters can be embedded into the field as shown in Table 21-2 on
page 788. For example, the backslash notation can be used to embed commas into
the A= delivery agent equate like this:
... A=eatmail -F0\,12\,99
The complete list of delivery agent equates is shown in Table 20-18. A full description
of each begins in the next section. They are presented in alphabetical order, rather than
the order in which they would appear in typical delivery agent definitions.
