NAME
     conflict -	search for alias/password conflicts

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/local/lib/mh/conflict	[-mail name] [-	search directory]
	  [aliasfiles...]  [-help]

DESCRIPTION
     Conflict is a program that	checks to see  if  the	interface
     between MH	and transport system is	in good	shape

     Conflict also checks for maildrops	in /var/mail which do not
     belong  to	 a valid user.	It assumes that	no user	name will
     start with	`.', and thus ignores files  in	 /var/mail  which
     begin with	`.'.  It also checks for entries in the	group (5)
     file which	do not belong to a valid user, and for users  who
     do	 not  have  a  valid group number.  In addition	duplicate
     users and groups are noted.

     If	the `-mail name' switch	is used, then the results will be
     sent to the specified name.  Otherwise, the results are sent
     to	the standard output.

     The `-search directory' switch can	be used	to search  direc-
     tories other than /var/mail and to	report anomalies in those
     directories.  The `-search	directory' switch can appear more
     than one time in an invocation to conflict.

     Conflict should be	run under  cron	(8), or	 whenever  system
     accounting	takes place.
