		21	`.I Send`
		22	`is not normally run directly by the user. Instead, mail protocol`
		23	`agents like`
		24	`.I smtpd`
		25	`(see`
		26	`.IR smtp (8))`
		27	`and mail preparers like`
		28	`.IR marshal (1)`
		29	`fork and execute`
		30	`.IR send .`
		31	`.PP`
		32	`.I Send`
		33	`reads a message from standard input and disposes of it in one`
		34	`of four ways:`
		35	`.IP \(bu 3`
		36	`If`
		37	`.I mailaddr`
		38	`refers to a local mailbox, it appends it to the`
		39	`recipient's mailbox.`
		40	`.IP \(bu`
		41	`If`
		42	`.I mailaddr`
		43	`is remote, it queues the mail for remote delivery.`
		44	`.IP \(bu`
		45	`If the`
		46	`.B -r`
		47	`option is given and the mail is undeliverable, it`
		48	`returns the mail to the sender.`
		49	`.IP \(bu`
		50	`if the`
		51	`.B -r`
		52	`option is not given and the mail is undeliverable, it`
		53	`appends the mail to`
		54	`.BI /mail/box/ username /dead.letter`
		55	`and prints a message to standard error.`

		57	`The file`

		69	`.TP`
		70	`.B -i`
		71	`let the message input be terminated by a line`
		72	`containing only a period, for`

		75	`.TP`

		85	`input is via a pipe from another program.`
		86	`Expect a From`
		87	`line at the start of the message to provide the`
