        !            11: SYNOPSIS
        !            12:      netmail [ -l username ] [ -p password ] [ -c ] [ -q ] [ -n ]

        !            15: DESCRIPTION
        !            16:      Mail is checked and/or read on the specified _m_a_c_h_i_n_e. If the
        !            17:      machine specification is omitted, the default machine is
        !            18:      used.  The command has two distinct modes depending on
        !            19:      whether the -c option is specified.
        !            20: 
        !            21:      If -c is specified, the presence of mail is checked on the
        !            22:      remote machine.  No password is required so it can be put in
        !            23:      C shell `.netrc' file.  A message is written or mailed back
        !            24:      (see _n_e_t(1)) if there is or is not any unread mail.
        !            25: 
        !            26:      If the -c option is not specified, mail is read and mailed
        !            27:      back to the user. A password is required.  Mail is also
        !            28:      appended to the remote file `_m_b_o_x' as a precaution.
        !            29: 
        !            30:      The -q option suppresses the message sent back if there is
        !            31:      no mail.  The options -l, -p, -f, and -n behave exactly as
        !            32:      in _n_e_t(1).  (The login name can be specified either with the
        !            33:      -l option or by `machine:username'.)
        !            34: 
        !            35:      _N_e_t_m_a_i_l executes the _n_e_t(1) command.
        !            36: 
        !            37:      Examples:
        !            38: 
        !            39:         netmail -c X:uname        checks if there is mail for
        !            40:                                   `uname' on the X machine, no
        !            41:                                   password required.
        !            42: 
        !            43:         netmail X:uname           reads mail for `uname' on the
        !            44:                                   X machine, mails it back,
        !            45:                                   password is required.
