+.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:

+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.
