 +====== Heirloom Mailx under Linux/BSD ======

 +Add the following to **~homeuser/.nailrc** to set the default SMTP relay:
 +
 +<file config ~homeuser/.nailrc>
 +
 +# Remote SDF SMTP relaying (use SDF 'mkvpm' tool to set auth user:pw):
 +set ssl-verify="ignore"
 +set smtp-use-starttls
 +set smtp=mx.sdf.org:587
 +set smtp-auth=cram-md5
 +set smtp-auth-user="sdf_user.sdf.org@sdf.org"
 +set smtp-auth-password="my_password"''
 +
 +</file>
 +
 +The SDF CA is self-signed but can still be used if desired. Retrieve and store
 +somewhere (ie. under ~/.openssl/) as pem file, then edit **~homeuser/.nailrc** like so:
 +
 +<file config ~homeuser/.nailrc>
 +
 +set ssl-ca-file="/home/home_user/.openssl/sdf_self-signed_ca.pem"
 +set ssl-verify="warn"  # will issue "self-signed CA" warning
 +...
 +
 +</file>
 +
 +Account-specific smtp settings are possible; see the Heirloom Mailx documentation.
