The latest sendmail command syntax is a bit difficult to work out from
the help text ( for a novice )

I finally got it to work with 

cat text | busybox sendmail -t -S smtpserver.mydomain.com  \
    -f lcx_105 at mynetrix.com  "me at dexdyne.com"

Also "Read additional recipients from message body" doesn't actually tell
you what format to put them in, or which fields are supported. I've found
that

all seem to work... but I don't know what else is supported - or is
anything with a colon in copied through as a header?

A simple man with some examples would be really useful.

er, but, "good work, thanks" !!!
