[fetchmail-users] mda command: ?options

[Andrew S. <and...@gm...>]

Hi,

I am using fetchmail release 6.3.8+SSL+NLS with procmail
v3.22 2001/09/10. In my ignorance I am calling procmail from my
.fetchmailrc as follows:

mda "/usr/bin/procmail -d %s" 

My question is: what do the options mean? I had a look in the man
entry and -d specifies the start of a daemon that should poll every
xxseconds. But I am unaware of the significance of %s, except to guess
that this is where I specify a time interval?

My useage of fetchmail / procmail is very 'manual'. I call fetchmail
from within mutt, expect procmail to do its work and close down, as I
expect fetchmail to close down.

 Thanks for your help,

       Andrew
