PRINTMAIL(1L) PRINTMAIL(1L)
NAME
printmail - format mail in a readable fashion for printing
SYNOPSIS
printmail {-p} {filename}
DESCRIPTION
Printmail copies all messages from either the file speci-
fied or the default user mailbox with each message sepa-
rated by a line of dashes. With the -p option, the mes-
sages are separated by a form feed instead.
In fact, this command is actually just a slightly differ-
ently formatted call to readmsg:
readmsg {-p} {-f filename} *
which does all the work here.
EXAMPLE
A typical usage of this command is;
printmail | lpr
