The Bcc: field will be deleted before sending. .It Fl v Enable verbose output. .It Fl f Set the sender's address. .It Fl F Set the sender's full name. .El .Pp To maintain compatibility with Sendmail, Inc.'s implementation of .Nm , various other flags are accepted, but these have no effect. .Sh EXIT STATUS .Ex -std .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr smtpd 8 , .Xr smtpctl 8 .Sh AUTHORS .Sy OpenSMTPD is primarily developed by Gilles Chehade, Eric Faurot, and Charles Longeau, with contridutions from various OpenBSD hackers.
