Subject: Mail::Mailer testfile documentation
The documentation states that the testfile mailer output will be written to STDOUT, but it is really $Mail::Mailer::testfile::config{outfile}, which is by default 'mailer.testfile' in the current working directory. Also, the Mail::Mailer documentation could be more explicit about "$command". It seems to me that $command is $args[0]? Regards, Slaven
I have updated the docs. $command was a relic of a very long history, I presume. The whole MailTools code is in a very poor shape... it is horrible code, and I am glad that I am not listed as author... Use Mail::Transport::Send if you wish a clean and RFC compliant interface.

There's a typo now in the documentation: it should be "mailer.testfile", not "mailer.testgile". Regards, Slaven
Fixed, new version of MailTools released. Thanks for the comments Slavan!
