nail-11.11

Adding

set sendmail=/usr/sbin/ssmtp.exe

to /etc/mail.rc allows nail to work with ssmtp.

What's weird, is that nail saw every command line option as an email address:

$ echo test | nail -s "subject" noone@example.com
$ smtp-server: 501 <-s>: recipient address must contain a domain
. . . message not sent.

Yet, if I typed:

$ echo test | nail -v -s "subject" noone@example.com
It *verbosely* displayed the above error.

Go figure.
