<h4 class="subsection">2.11.8 Remote Mailbox Delivery</h4>
<p><code>Maidag</code> can be used to deliver mail to remote mailboxes, such
as &lsquo;<samp>imap</samp>&rsquo; or &lsquo;<samp>remote+smtp</samp>&rsquo;.  If the mailbox <acronym>URL</acronym>
is &lsquo;<samp>remote+smtp</samp>&rsquo; or &lsquo;<samp>remote+sendmail</samp>&rsquo;, the message is
actually forwarded over <acronym>SMTP</acronym> to the remote node, so
<code>maidag</code> acts as a message transfer agent.  For example:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">$ maidag --url remote+smtp://10.10.1.100:24
</pre></div>

<p>This command line will send the message to the machine
&lsquo;<samp>10.10.1.100</samp>&rsquo; using port &lsquo;<samp>24</samp>&rsquo; (private mail system).
</p>
<p>The &lsquo;<samp>remote+prog</samp>&rsquo; mailbox may be of special use.  Delivering to
this mailbox results in invoking the specified command with the given
arguments and passing the message to its standard input.  There are two
ways to specify a &lsquo;<samp>remote+prog</samp>&rsquo; mailbox:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt>remote+prog://<var>program</var>?<var>args</var></dt>
<dd><p>Here, <var>program</var> is the absolute pathname of the program binary,
and <var>args</var> are its arguments, separated by &lsquo;<samp>&amp;</samp>&rsquo; signs.
</p>
</dd>
<dt>|<var>program</var> <var>args</var></dt>
<dd><p>In this notation, <var>args</var> are command line arguments separated by
white space.
</p></dd>
</dl>

<p>In both cases, <var>args</var> do not include <code>argv[0]</code>.
</p>
<p>The &lsquo;<samp>remote+prog</samp>&rsquo; mailbox may be used, in particular, to implement
mailing lists with MeTA1.
</p>
<p>For example, suppose that the <code>maidag</code> configuration contains:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">auth {
  authorization sql:system;
  authentication generic:system;
}

sql {
  interface mysql;
  db mail;
  getpwnam &quot;SELECT user as name, mailbox, &quot;
           &quot;'x' as passwd, 500 as uid, 2 as gid, &quot;
           &quot;'/nonexistent' as dir, '/sbin/nologin' as shell &quot;
           &quot;FROM userdb &quot;
           &quot;WHERE user='${user}'&quot;;
}
</pre></div>

<p>Then, the following entries in the &lsquo;<samp>userdb</samp>&rsquo; table implement
<a href="mailto:mailman@yourdomain">mailman@yourdomain</a> mailing list:
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">mysql&gt; select * from userdb;
