Overview

This tool is used to break down an email into a shortened version, using a configurable set of rewriting rules, found in /etc/sendpage/email2page.conf. email2page reads STDIN, and writes to STDOUT. Any errors will be reported on STDERR. It was designed to be used with 'sendpage'.

Bugs

All the bugs with the program will probably come from the config file, as several of the items are run with Perl's 'eval' statement. Please see the documentation in the /etc/sendpage/email2page.conf file.

From sendpage-client 1.0.3-1.1 in Debian 11 (Bullseye). Parsed by carta from the page's man source.
