Description Jens Kreiensiek 2003-04-15 04:32:21 UTC

Please find attached safecat.tar.gz containing safecat-1.9.ebuild and a
patch so that it will compile without 'errno' errors.

Safecat implements Dan Bernstein's maildir algorithm, copying standard input
safely to a specified directory. With safecat, the user is offered two
assurances. First, if safecat returns successfully, then all data is guaranteed
to be saved in the destination directory. Second, if a file exists in the
destination directory, placed there by safecat, then the file is guaranteed to
be complete.

I use the included script 'maildir' to do spam filtering in my dot-qmail,
which looks like this:

|spamassassin | maildir ~/.maildir/

Have fun,
Jens

Please attach all files individually as plain text.  It makes it much easier for us to go over all of them.
