NAME
       sendmail - send mail messages

SYNOPSIS
       sendmail [ recipient ...	 ]

DESCRIPTION
       Sendmail	 sends	mail  to each recipient named as an argument. It reads
       its standard input to get the text of the message.  If no recipient  is
       named, the recipient(s) will be taken from the message header.

       The mail message is scanned for lines beginning and
       If  no  `from'  line  is found, the sender is assumed to be the current
       user. The recipient(s) of the message can be mentioned as arguments  or
       in  a list of names in a line but not as both.  If the sender's name is
       unqualified (is just a user name), sendmail appends the	value  of  the
       environment variable

       Sendmail	 delivers the mail using the module smtp(2), which connects to
       a mail server running the Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP),	 using
       the symbolic host name $MAILSERVER (see db(6)).
