No Victor, I haven't left that out, I simply don't have it in the smtp(8) manual page: $ cat /etc/SuSE-release openSUSE 11.0 (i586) VERSION = 11.0 $ rpm -qf $(man -w 8 smtp) postfix-2.5.1-28.1 $ postconf mail_version mail_version = 2.5.1 $ postconf mail_release_date mail_release_date = 20080216 and Novell isn't patching documentation in said RPM - I downloaded the .src.rpm and checked - the contained 2.5.1 tarball verifies with Wietse's official .sig GnuPG checksum, and smtp.c, .8 and .8.html also match what I quoted (left in). Conclusion: documentation doesn't match implementation. Reason unknown. I suggest to fix the former in the current situation. Best regards, -- Matthias Andree
