PROGRAM:

NAME

lbdb-fetchaddr - grab addresses from mails add append them to lbdb database

SYNOPSIS

lbdb-fetchaddr [-d dateformat] [-x headerfieldlist] [-c charset] [-a]
lbdb-fetchaddr [-v|-h]

DESCRIPTION

lbdb-fetchaddr is a shell script which reads a mail on stdin. It extracts the contents of
some header fields (default: `From:', `To:', `Cc:', `Resent-From:', and `Resent-To:') from
the mail header (only addresses with a real name) and appends them to
$HOME/.lbdb/m_inmail.list. For performance issues lbdb-fetchaddr appends new addresses to
this file without removing duplicates. To get rid of duplicates, the program lbdb-munge
exists, which is run by m_inmail if needed and removes duplicates.

To use this program, put the following lines into your $HOME/.procmailrc:
:0hc
| lbdb-fetchaddr

lbdb-fetchaddr writes the actual date to the third column of the database by using
strftime(3). It uses "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M" as the default date format (e.g. "1999-04-29
14:33"). You can change this by using the -d option to select a different date format
string as parameter of lbdb-fetchaddr command like
:0hc
| lbdb-fetchaddr -d "%y-%m-%d"
which results in e.g. "99-04-29".

OPTIONS

-v Print version number of lbdb-fetchaddr.

-d dateformat

-x headerfields
A colon separated list of header fields, which should be searched for mail
addresses. If this option isn't given, we fall back to `from:to:cc:resent-
from:resent-to'.

-c charset
The charset which will be used to write the database. This should be the charset
which the application expects (normally the one from your current locale). If this

real name.
