Aren't there many other "commands" run by send-email, like --to-cmd and --cc-cmd? It probably should indicate somehow that it is the command for sending mail. I agree it does not have to say "SMTP". If it is meant to be compatible with sendmail, then maybe "sendemail.sendmailCommand" and "--sendmail-cmd" would work. -Peff
