.SH DESCRIPTION
Each file in /usr/spool/netmail contains a message to be sent to
one or more sites on the Arpanet.  They are processed by the
.I mailer(8)
daemon.
The format of a message file is as follows:
The first line has the sender's name, a space, and the date the
message was sent (in the form returned by 
.I cdate(3)
).  Following lines
represent addresses and have a code character, a host name, a space,
and a mailbox name.  The code is '/' if this address has not already
been handled, '|' if it has.  The addresses end with a blank line.
The remainder of the file is the text of the message.
