+ To use a different SMTP server temporarily (after nmh 1.5):
+
+ What now? send -server smtp.example.com
+
+ Use the name or address of your SMTP server, of course.
+ Alternatively, if you can use your local sendmail program, then
+ enable that by one of these methods:
+
+ 1. Change the mts setting in your mts.conf to:
+
+ mts: sendmail/pipe
+
+ 2. Add the mts setting to a send entry in your profile. For example,
+
+ send: -mts sendmail/pipe
+
+ 3. Override the mts setting temporarily:
+
+ What now? send -mts sendmail/pipe
+
+ 4. Add the following to your profile:
+
+ postproc: $MHLIB/spost
+
+ This is the only available solution if you are running a version
+ of MH other than nmh 1.5 and higher. However, the use of spost is
+ discouraged because:
+
+ a) It requires the local sendmail to be configured for delivery
+ to all possible addresses. This may not be as common as it used
+ to be, as it is limited by many ISPs.
+
+ b) spost and blind MH aliases turn out to be a potentially
+ dangerous combination: spost expands them as if they weren't
+ blind, so all recipients see them.
