NAME¶
check-sendfile - Check if some files have arrived
DESCRIPTION¶
The check-sendfile command tests if there are files hosed in the user's
sendfile spool area. If so he will be informed about the files.
This command should be started from /etc/profile to give all users
a chance to notices that some files have arrived in their absence. As the
defauld behaviour of sendfiled is to write a note on the user's tty he won't
notice receiption if he's not logged in. The lack of need to be logged in is
one of sendfile's advantages.
FILES¶
- /var/spool/sendfile/$user
- Spool area for the specifig user.
