EDITMAP(8)							    EDITMAP(8)

NAME
       editmap - query and edit single records in database maps for sendmail

SYNOPSIS
       editmap	[-C  file]  [-N]  [-f] [-q|-u|-x] maptype mapname key [ "value
       ..." ]

DESCRIPTION
       Editmap queries or edits one record in database maps used by the	 keyed
       map  lookups  in sendmail(8).  Arguments are passed on the command line
       and output (for queries) is directed to standard output.

       Depending on how it is compiled, editmap handles up to three  different
       database formats, selected using the maptype parameter.	They may be

       dbm    DBM format maps.	This requires the ndbm(3) library.

       btree  B-Tree  format maps.  This requires the new Berkeley DB library.

       hash   Hash format maps.	 This also requires the Berkeley DB library.

       If the TrustedUser option is set in the sendmail configuration file and
       editmap	is  invoked  as root, the generated files will be owned by the
       specified TrustedUser.

   Flags
       -C     Use the specified sendmail configuration file for looking up the
	      TrustedUser option.

       -N     Include  the  null  byte that terminates strings in the map (for
	      alias maps).

       -f     Normally all upper case letters in the key are folded  to	 lower
	      case.   This  flag disables that behaviour.  This is intended to
	      mesh with the -f flag in the K line in sendmail.cf.   The	 value
	      is never case folded.

       -q     Query  the  map for the specified key.  If found, print value to
	      standard output and exit with 0.	If not	found  then  print  an
	      error message to stdout and exit with EX_UNAVAILABLE.

       -u     Update  the record for key with value or inserts a new record if
	      one doesn't exist.  Exits with 0 on success or EX_IOERR on fail-
	      ure.

       -x     Deletes  the specific key from the map.  Exits with 0 on success
	      or EX_IOERR on failure.
