Synopsis

buildd-mail

Version

       This  man  page documents the packaged version of buildd-mail.  This version is maintained by the buildd-tools project developers on Alioth (https://alioth.debian.org/projects/buildd-tools/).

       There is also a version maintained by Ryan Murray which is adapted to build daemon  needs,  with  similar
       functionality.   This version should be equally capable of working in a buildd setup, but has a number of
       enhancements aimed at making it suitable for use by end-users.
