NAME
pms - run a mail command
pythonms - run a Python interpreter with all the functions in PMS.Commands
in the current namespace
SYNOPSIS
pms <command> <args>
pythonms
QUICK INTRODUCTION
In order to start using PMS, some directories need to be initialized. In order to start using PMS, the easiest way to create them is to use
pms init
While this will initialize the directories, it will not allow you to read e-mail from the spool -- PMS does not currently support unix mail boxes. If you are using an MH-like setup, where your mail is in ~/Mail/inbox, the following commands should get you started:
pms server default;pms server inbox
