15 \fIWhom\fR is used to expand the headers of a message into a set of addresses
16 and optionally verify that those addresses are deliverable at that time
17 (if `\-check' is given).
19 The `\-draftfolder\ +folder' and `\-draftmessage\ msg' switches invoke the
20 \fIMH\fR draft folder facility.
21 This is an advanced (and highly useful) feature.
22 Consult the \fBAdvanced Features\fR section of the \fIMH\fR manual for more
25 The files specified by the profile entry \*(lqAliasfile:\*(rq and any
26 additional alias files given by the `\-alias aliasfile' switch will be read
27 (more than one file, each preceeded by `\-alias', can be named).
28 See \fImh\-alias\fR\0(5) for more information.

50 With the `\-check' option, \fIwhom\fR makes no guarantees that the addresses
51 listed as being ok are really deliverable, rather, an address being listed
52 as ok means that at the time that \fIwhom\fR was run the address was
53 thought to be deliverable by the transport service. For local addresses, this
54 is absolute; for network addresses, it means that the host is known; for uucp
55 addresses, it (often) means that the \fIUUCP\fR network is available for use.
