PlutRieve is a program to automatically scan messages in your BadMail
directory, and retrieve them into your ordinary message bases.  This
version of PlutRieve has been entirely re-written to make this process
AUTOMATIC.

Messages get into the BADMAIL area for a variety of reasons, and a lot
of them ARE bad messages - you wouldn't want them in distribution.  But
I find that the majority of messages that go into BAD do so for two main
reasons:

 (a) it's a new area and you haven't set it up in your config, or

 (b) the system sending you the messages isn't configured in the
export-to line, due to an error, or a changing node number.

If you have bad messages from areas that are not configured, then you
should set those areas up in your TrapToss config file.  That's all you
need do!!!  You DO NOT need to create these directories, PlutRieve will
do that for you automatically.

If you have bad messages coming from a system not in the export-to list,
PlutRieve will simply rescue them without you having to do anything.
