lr_spoold1

Usage

Overview

lr_spoold is typically invoked from a init script after booting the system.

It should be started as

 lr_run lr_spoold

under the Lire useraccount. This is used to keep an online responder running. See the "Responder Installation" section in the "Installing Lire" chapter of the Lire User Manual for details.

lr_spoold invokes lr_check_service(1) to get a list of services, which are used as addresses for an online responder. For each address $service in this list, it runs

  lr_spool $spooldir lr_processmail $service

periodically. $spooldir gets constructed using profile_lean and the address.

Typically, spooldir is a Maildir's `new' subdirectory, like e.g.

 .../var/spool/lire/$address/Maildir/new/

.

In effect, we make it possible to invoke lr_processmail with the right arguments for each message, so that logfiles in the messages get processed by the right 2dlf convertor.
