System: NetBSD garapi.itv6.org 1.6 NetBSD 1.6 (GARAPI) #1: Thu Dec 5 10:06:59 JST 2002 jasmin@garapi.itv6.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GARAPI i386
Architecture: i386
Machine: i386
>Description:
	
    current version of /bin/rmail specifies "-oqd" option to invoke
    sendmail, so mails sent via uucp won't be delivered until next
    queue processing will occur.
>How-To-Repeat:
	
    /bin/rmail [user]
>Fix:
	
    apply a patch below to /usr/src/libexec/rmail/rmail.c and re-build 
    /bin/rmail.
    this change will deliver mails immediately.
