+.SH NAME
+exim_lock \- Mailbox maintenance
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B exim_lock
+.RI [ options ] mailbox-file
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B exim_lock
+utility locks a mailbox file using the same algorithm as Exim.
+For a discussion of locking issues, see section 25.2.
+.B exim_lock
+can be used to prevent any modification of a mailbox by Exim or a user
+agent while investigating a problem.
+The utility requires the name of the file as its first argument.
+If the locking is successful, the second argument is run as a command
+(using C's \(lqsystem()\(rq function); if there is no second argument, the value
+of the SHELL environment variable is used; if this is unset or empty,
+/bin/sh is run.
+When the command finishes, the mailbox is unlocked and the utility ends.
+The following options are available:
+.TP
+.I \-fcntl
+Use \(lqfcntl()\(rq locking on the open mailbox.
+.TP
+.I \-interval
+This must be followed by a number, which is a number of seconds; it
+sets the interval to sleep between retries (default 3).
+.TP
+.I \-lockfile
+Create a lock file before opening the mailbox.
+.TP
+.I \-mbx
+Lock the mailbox using MBX rules.
+.TP
+.I \-q
+Suppress verification output.
+.TP
+.I \-retries
+This must be followed by a number; it sets the number of times to try
+to get the lock (default 10).
+.TP
+.I \-timeout
+This must be followed by a number, which is a number of seconds; it
+sets a timeout to be used with a blocking \(lqfcntl()\(rq lock.
+If it is not set (the default), a non-blocking call is used.
+.TP
+.I \-v
+Generate verbose output.
+
+If none of
+.I \-fcntl, \-lockfile
+or
+.I \-mbx
+are given, the default is to create a lock file and also use \(lqfcntl()\(rq locking
+on the mailbox, which is the same as
+.B Exim's
+default.
+The use of
+.I \-fcntl
+requires that the file be writable; the use
+of
+.I \-lockfile
+requires that the directory containing the file be writable.
+Locking by lock file does not last for ever; Exim assumes that a lock file
+is expired if it is more than 30 minutes old.
+
+The
+.I \-mbx
+option is mutually exclusive with
+.I \-fcntl.
+It causes a shared lock to be taken out on the open mailbox, and an
+exclusive lock on the file /tmp/.n.m where n and m are the device number
+and inode number of the mailbox file.
+When the locking is released, if an exclusive lock can be obtained for the
+mailbox, the file in /tmp is deleted.
+
+The default output contains verification of the locking that takes place.
+The
+.I \-v
+option causes some additional information to be given.
+The
+.I \-q
+option suppresses all output except error messages.
+.PP
+A command such as
+
+  exim_lock /var/spool/mail/spqr
+
+runs an interactive shell while the file is locked, whereas
+
+  exim_lock \-q /var/spool/mail/spqr <<End
+  <some commands>
+  End
+
+runs a specific non-interactive sequence of commands while the file is
+locked, suppressing all verification output.
+A single command can be run by a command such as
+
+  exim_lock \-q /var/spool/mail/spqr \
+    "cp /var/spool/mail/spqr /some/where"
+
+Note that if a command is supplied, it must be entirely contained within
+the second argument - hence the quotes.

+.SH BUGS
+This manual page needs a major re-work. If somebody knows better groff
+than us and has more experience in writing manual pages, any patches
+would be greatly appreciated.
