Greg Lehey c09813a5da Change location of temporary file from /tmp to /var/tmp. This is a repeat of an earlier commit which apparently got lost with the last import. It helps solve the frequently reported problem pid 4032 (mail.local), uid 0 on /: file system full (though there appears to be a lot of space) caused by idiots sending 30 MB mail messages. Most-recently-reported-by: jahanur <jahanur@jjsoft.com> Add $FreeBSD$ so that I can check the file back in. Rejected-by: CVS		1999-12-17 01:18:44 +00:00

This directory contains the source files for mail.local.

This is not intended to be used on *stock* System V derived systems such as
Solaris or HP-UX, since they use a totally different approach to mailboxes
(essentially, they have a setgid program rather than setuid, and they rely
on the ability to "give away"  files to do their work). 

If you choose to run *this* mail.local on these systems then you may also
need to replace the existing MUAs, as well as IMAP and POP servers, with
ones that are compatible with the BSD interface.  You have been warned!
