bin/mail on osf5 / DU5.0 / Compaq trucluster64.

tru64 binmail cannot take the -f switch, as -f means something
different here than it means to the system 7 syntax as given
in all the /var/qmail/boot examples.

I have determined that I can get a successful qmail delivery
using OS-proved /bin/mail with this /var/qmail/rc file:


#!/bin/sh

# Using splogger to send the log through syslog.
# Using binmail to deliver messages to /var/spool/mail/$USER by default.
# on tru64 bin/mail, -f is a switch to specify an alternate mbox file
# so use -d only


exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start \
'|preline -f /bin/mail -d "$USER"' \
splogger qmail
