will cause each of the specified files to be delivered
to each of the destinations in the \*(lqTo:\*(rq, \*(lqcc:\*(rq,

argument will query whether the draft
mail transport method is not in use, its addresses will be used for
delivery, and the \*(lqDcc:\*(rq field will be removed from the message. The
blind recipients will receive the same message sent to the sighted
-recipients. *WARNING* Recipients listed in the \*(lqDcc:\*(rq field receive no
+recipients. *WARNING* Recipients listed in the \*(lqDcc:\*(rq field receive no
explicit indication that they have received a \*(lqblind copy\*(rq.
This can cause blind recipients to
inadvertently reply to all of the sighted recipients of the

If

.B \-user
switch must be used, and the

must be an email address the user has for the service, which must
be specified with the

The
.B \-notls
switch will disable all attempts to negotiate TLS.
SMTPS (SMTP over SSL) was deregistered by IANA in 1998, it is still
used for that service.

+When using TLS the default is to verify the remote certificate and SubjectName
+against the local trusted certificate store. This can be controlled by
