iftoss - Convert Fidonet FTN packets to RFC-822 and RFC-1036 mail/news.

       Some ideas taken from Fidogate/RFmail package, written by Teemu Torma and hacked by Martin Junius.   Some
       modeules  taken from INN package.  Thanks to Michael Bravo <mbravo@tctube.spb.su> (who was the first) and
       many others for testing.

Iftoss converts Fidonet netmail packets into RFC-822 internet mail or RFC-1036 Usenet News.  It expects a
       non-arcmail  packet  on  stdin  and passes converted mail messages and/or generated newsbatch to sendmail
       and/or rnews.  If you specify -N, resultant messages/newsbatches will go to the  directory  "/tmp/ifmail"
       instead of being fed to sendmail/rnews.

       Ifmail  and  iftoss  programs  try to preserve as much information as possible in "X-FTN-..." headers and
       "^ARFC-..." kludges, and restore messages more or less accurately to their  original  form  when  double-
       gatewaying.

       If  you  make  a  system  mail alias file accessible to the iftoss program, it makes attempt to "backward
       resolve" the "from" addresses, that is, if the originating address of the  FidoNet  message  matches  the
       right  side  of  some  mail alias, the "Reply-To:" header of the generated mail/news message will contain
       "alias@your.domain.name" address.

       Message   IDs   are   converted   as   follows:   "^AMSGID:   <address>   <hexnum>"   is   converted   to
       "<decimalnum>@<address>".  If there was no MSGID in the fidonet message, messageid of the form <creation-
       time>@<from-address> is generated, so that when a single message is gatewayed in several distinct places,
       it will have the same messageid anyway (for some (little) risk of having two different messages with  the
       same  messageid).  RFC822  Message-IDs  are  converted  back  when  they  can be, otherwise the messageid
       "<local>@<domain>" is converted to "^AMSGID <domain> crc32(<local>)".  When  an  RFC  message  is  split,
       unique  MSGIDs  are  generated for all parts after the first one. In any case, the original "Message-ID:"
       header is preserved in the "^ARFC-Message-ID:" kludge and used if the message comes  back  to  usenet  on
       some (other) gateway.

-h
       Display a short help message.

       -N
       Put resutant messages/newsbatch to /tmp/ifmail, do not invoke sendmail/rnews.
