sendmail
— a mail
enqueuer for smtpd(8)
sendmail |
[-tv ] [-F
name] [-f
from] to ... |
The sendmail
utility is a local enqueuer
for the smtpd(8) daemon, compatible with
mailwrapper(8). The message is read on standard input
(stdin) until sendmail
encounters an end-of-file.
The sendmail
enqueuer is not intended to be used
directly to send mail, but rather via a frontend known as a mail user
agent.
Unless the optional -t
flag is specified,
one or more recipients must be specified on the command line.
The options are as follows:
-F
name-f
from-t
-v
To maintain compatibility with Sendmail, Inc.'s implementation of
sendmail
, various other flags are accepted, but have
no effect.
The sendmail
utility exits 0 on
success, and >0 if an error occurs.
