NAME
       binarsys - remote system information for the ckbinarsys command

DESCRIPTION
       binarsys contains lines of the form:
                              remote_system_name:val
       where val is either Y or N.  This line indicates whether that
       particular remote system can properly deal with messages having
       binary content.  The absence of an entry for a particular system or
       absence of the binarsys file altogether will imply No.

       Blank lines or lines beginning with # are considered comments and
       ignored.  Should a line of Default=y be encountered, the default
       condition for missing entries described in the previous paragraph is
       reversed to be Yes.  Another line of Default=n will restore the
       default condition to No.

       mail is distributed with the binarsys file containing only a
       Default=y line.
