That would also be my preference, but it would be a larger change and I'm not currently confident enough to go this route. >From the points and ideas raised (and btw, thanks a lot for those), the easiest one seems to be treating $smtp_server as path options, the cleanest one a new $smtp_program options, and the middle ground being adding support for '!' prefix. Unless someone beats me to it, I will try to throw together a patch, aiming for now for the '!' prefix and falling back to path option – as this is potentially my first contribution here, I'll see how it goes. -- Jan Staněk – Khardix
