                     18: \fIWhom\fR is used to expand the headers of a message into a set of addresses
                     19: and optionally verify that those addresses are deliverable at that time
                     20: (if `\-check' is given).
                     21: 
                     22: The `\-draftfolder\ +folder' and `\-draftmessage\ msg' switches invoke the
                     23: \fIMH\fR draft folder facility.
                     24: This is an advanced (and highly useful) feature.
                     25: Consult the \fBAdvanced Features\fR section of the \fIMH\fR manual for more
                     26: information.
                     27: 
                     28: By using the `\-alias\ aliasfile' switch, the user can direct \fIsend\fR
                     29: to consult the named files for alias definitions
                     30: (more than one file, each  preceeded by `\-alias', can be named).
                     31: See \fImh\-alias\fR\0(5) for more information.

                     41: `file' defaults to <mh\-dir>/draft

                     49: With the `\-check' option, \fIwhom\fR makes no guarantees that the addresses
                     50: listed as being ok are really deliverable, rather, an address being listed
                     51: as ok means that at the time that \fIwhom\fR was run the address was
                     52: thought to be deliverable by the transport service.  For local addresses, this
                     53: is absolute; for network addresses, it means that the host is known; for uucp
                     54: addresses, it (often) means that the \fIUUCP\fR network is available for use.
