NAME
     smtp - send SMTP mail to a remote host using Simple Mail Transfer Pro-

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/lib/mail/surrcmd/smtp [-D] [-u] [-a toaddr] [-d domain]
                                [-H helohost] sender host recip ...

DESCRIPTION
     smtp sends a message to a remote host host using the Simple Mail
     Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The message is read from standard input.
     sender is used to identify the sender of the message and the recips
     are used as the recipients.

     When establishing a connection, smtp will use the first transport for
     which netdirgetbyname [see netdir(3N)] returns an address, based on
     hostname, transport [returned from getnetpath(3N)], and service smtp.
     Normally, this will be the "tcp" transport.

OPTIONS
     -D             This option turns on debugging. Debugging information
                    is printed to stderr.

     -H helohost    This option can be used to set the hostname used in
                    SMTP HELO message (this defaults to the system's name).

     -d domain      This option can be used to set the domain name to be
                    used for this host.

     -u             Assumes it is unix format and does no conversion of
                    destination address to RFC822 format.

     -a toaddr      Opens connection to toaddr instead of host specified.

     smtp is normally run by the smtpsched process to deliver mail queued
     in /var/spool/smtpq.

FILES
