- Please don't publish the sendmail hack. The reason that mh-e.el uses MH's
- send facility is that your mail system may not be SMTP based. You also may
- not have configured sendmail on your system. If you run SVR4, you may not
- have sendmail configured. If there is an MX record for your machine, SMTP
- mail will be sent somewhere else. And if all the users use MH, you can
- configure MH to connect directly to the mail server.
-
- What's the problem with using send anyway? On most Unix systems it will
- either use sendmail or connect to the SMTP server anyway.
