/* NAME
/*	mail_connect 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	intra-mail system connection management
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <mail_proto.h>
/*
/*	VSTREAM *mail_connect(class, name, block_mode)
/*	const char *class;
/*	const char *name;
/*	int	block_mode;
/*
/*	VSTREAM *mail_connect_wait(class, name)
/*	const char *class;
/*	const char *name;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	This module does low-level connection management for intra-mail
/*	communication.  All reads and writes are subject to a time limit
/*	(controlled by the global variable \fIvar_ipc_timeout\fR). This
/*	protects against deadlock conditions that should never happen.
/*
/*	mail_connect() attempts to connect to the UNIX-domain socket of
/*	the named subsystem. The result is a null pointer in case of failure.
/*	By default this function provides no errno logging.
/*
/*	mail_connect_wait() is like mail_connect(), but keeps trying until
/*	the connection succeeds. However, mail_connect_wait() terminates
/*	with a fatal error when the service is down. This is to ensure that
/*	processes terminate when the mail system shuts down.
/*
/*	Arguments:
/* .IP class
/*	Name of a class of local transport channel endpoints,
/*	either \fIpublic\fR (accessible by any local user) or
/*	\fIprivate\fR (administrative access only).
/* .IP service
/*	The name of a local transport endpoint within the named class.
/* .IP block_mode
/*	NON_BLOCKING for a non-blocking connection, or BLOCKING.
/* SEE ALSO
/*	timed_ipc(3), enforce IPC timeouts.
/* LICENSE
/* .ad
/* .fi
/*	The Secure Mailer license must be distributed with this software.
