+The

Encrypted data is labelled with `(encrypted)' and `(decrypted)' when
viewing the SMTP transaction with the

+If
+.B nmh
+has been compiled with OAuth support, the
+.B \-sasl
+and
+.B \-saslmech xoauth2
+switches will enable OAuth authentication. The
+.B \-user
+switch must be used, and the
+.I username
+must be an email address the user has for the service, which must
+be specified with the
+.B \-authservice
+.I service
+switch. Before using OAuth authentication, the user must authorize nmh by

+.B mhlogin
+and grant authorization to that account. See

.PP
+If port 465 is specified and none of the TLS switches were enabled,
+.B \-initialtls
+will be implied if TLS support was compiled in. Though port 465 for
+SMTPS (SMTP over SSL) was deregistered by IANA in 1998, it is still
+used for that service.
+.PP
+When using TLS the default is to verify the remote certificate and SubjectName
+against the local trusted certificate store. This can be controlled by

+.SS Selection based on sender address: sendfrom
+One or more
+.I sendfrom
+profile components can be used to select a mail server address, mail server
+port, or any other switch that can be supplied to
+.BR post .
+It works by first looking at the sender address and domain name in the
+message draft, as described below.
+It then looks for a corresponding profile entry, which contains the
+.B post
+switches.
+To enable, add profile entries of the form:
+.PP
+.RS 5
+.RI sendfrom- "address/domain name" : " post switches"
+.RE
+.PP
+The email address is extracted from the Envelope-From: header, if not blank,
+the Sender: header, or the From: header line in the message draft.
+Multiple profile entries, with different email addresses or domain names, are
+supported.
+This allows different switches to
+.BR post ,
+such as -user, to be associated with different email addresses.
+If a domain name is used, it matches all users in that domain.
+.PP
+Here is an example profile entry using OAuth for an account hosted by gmail:

+-authservice gmail -tls -server smtp.gmail.com
+-user gmail_login@example.com
+.RE

+.PP
+(Indentation indicates a continued line, as supported in MH profiles.)
+The username need not be the same as the sender address, which was extracted
+from the appropriate header line as noted above.
