CKADR(8)

NAME
ckadr - address checker

SYNOPSIS
ckadr [-rxanpbl0123] [address..]

DESCRIPTION
The ckadr tool checks whether addresses are acceptable to the local mail system.

If ckadr is invoked with command line arguments, it will attempt to parse them as addresses and report back the result.

If no command line arguments are given, ckadr will read from the standard input. Each line read will be parsed as an address and the result reported back to the user.

ckadr has a growing number of flags. These are:-

-r  Force the address type to be RFC-822 address. This is the default choice.

-x  Force the address type to be X.400 style.

-a  Normalise all domains within the address

-n  No responsibility set, parse this like an originator address.

-p  count percent characters (%) as routing constructs.

-b  Parse in big-endian format first (UK form).

-l  parse in little endian format (US and rest of world format)
