# mailmail2.3(1)

Twisted sendmail compatibility script

## NAME

mailmail - Twisted sendmail compatibility script

## SYNOPSIS

**mailmail \[recipient addresses\]**

## DESCRIPTION

mailmail reads RFC822 message text from standard input and delivers them, using SMTP, to a Mail Transfer Agent listening at 127.0.0.1:25.  It accepts (but does not necessarily implement) many of the standard [sendmail(1)](/sendmail/1.md) options, but it is preferable to list only the recipient addresses on the command line, and include a **From** header within the message text indicating the sender.
