+The
+.B \-to

+.B \-subject
+switch specifies the subject.  Alternatively, these two required values
+can be provided without their corresponding switch names.
+.PP
+The
+.B \-from
+switch can, and should, be used to specify the sender's mailbox (name
+and email address).  Alternatively, the
+.B PERSON
+environment variable can be used for the same purpose.
+If neither is used,
+.B sendfiles
+will supply a \*(lqFrom:\*(rq header field using the sender's local
