DESCRIPTION

       application.  The internals of each implementation can differ quite a lot, so have a look at each
       separate manual page as well.

DIAGNOSTICS

       Warning: Avoid program abuse: specify an absolute path for $exec.
           Specifying explicit locations for executables of email transfer  agents  should  only  be  done  with
           absolute file names, to avoid various pontential security problems.

       Warning: Executable $exec does not exist.
           The  explicitly  indicated  mail transfer agent does not exists. The normal settings are used to find
           the correct location.

       Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
           Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this  method  where
           it  should.  This  message means that some other related classes do implement this method however the
           class at hand does not.  Probably you should investigate this and probably inform the author  of  the
           package.
