+#### mailit
+
+    mailit is a wrapper to send mails including attachments from 
+    the command line. It uses sendmail to deliver the message to the
+    corret place. mailit is based on MIME::Lite from ZeeGee Software
+    Inc.
+ 
+    With -p flag set it reads from standard input up to an EOF or a
+    single dot line. That means it can read some data through a Unix
+    Pipe till EOF or, if you prefere read in interactively, terminate
+    input with a single dot in the line. In interactive mode mailit
+    will prompt you for the body.
+    The data you entered this way will be sent as the body of the mail
+    setting text/plain as Content-Type.
+ 
+    mailit determines the 'sender address' from both the environment 
+    variable HOME for the 'user' part as well as the source setting
+    $DOMAIN_NAME as 'domain'.
