Description

   TEST/REWRITE provides a straightforward test facility for
   examining PMDF's address rewriting and channel mapping process
   without actually sending any message. Various qualifiers can be
   used to control whether TEST/REWRITE uses the configuration text
   files or the compiled configuration (if present), the amount of
   output produced, and so on.

   If one or more test addresses are specified on the command
   line, TEST/REWRITE applies PMDF address rewriting to those
   addresses, reports the results, and exits. If no test address
   is specified TEST/REWRITE will enter a loop, prompting for
   addresses, rewriting them, and prompting again for more
   addresses. TEST/REWRITE will exit when a CTRL/Z is entered.

   When testing rewriting of a alias corresponding to a mailing list
   which has an AUTH_ or CANT_ type of named parameter controlling
   who is authorized to post to the list, or when testing rewriting
   when SEND_ACCESS or related mapping tables are in effect, note
   that by default TEST/REWRITE uses as the posting address the
   return address of the local postmaster as specified by the
   RETURN_ADDRESS option in the PMDF option file. To specify a
   different posting address for the rewriting process, use the
   /FROM qualifier.
