NAME
collectnews - add news articles to Cyrus header files
SYNOPSIS
collectnews [ -C config-file ]
DESCRIPTION
Collectnews reads article data from the standard input. It uses this
information to update the files necessary for reading the articles
through the Cyrus IMAP server. Collectnews is designed to be used by
InterNetNews to update the IMAP database as the articles come in.
The input is processed as an INN overview stream written as a ``WR''
entry in the newsfeeds(5) file. This data consists of lines of text of
the format newsgroup/article number, seperated by commas.
Collectnews reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5)
file unless specified otherwise by -C. The optional newsprefix option
specifies a prefix to be prepended to newsgroup names to make the cor-
responding IMAP mailbox names. The required partition-news option
specifies the pathname prefix to the IMAP news mailboxes. The value of
partition-news concatenated with the dots-to-slashes-converted value of
newsprefix must be the pathname of the news spool directory.
OPTIONS
-C config-file
Read configuration options from config-file.
