mini_sendmail - accept email on behalf of real sendmail
mini_sendmail [-f<name>] [-t]
[-s<server>] [-p<port>] [-T<timeout>]
[-v] address ...
With no flags, mini_sendmail reads its standard input up to an
end-of-file and sends a copy of the message found there to all of the
addresses listed.
The message is sent by connecting to a local SMTP server. This
means mini_sendmail can be used to send email from inside a chroot(2)
area.
- -f
- Sets the name of the "from" person (i.e. the sender of the
mail).
- -t

recipient addresses. The Bcc: line will be deleted before
transmission.

port.
- -T
- Specifies timeout - defaults to one minute.
