API

  (require "mail")

  (send-mail from to message &key :host :port :subject :cc :bcc :reply-to)

      Send MESSAGE via email.  FROM is used as a sender path,
      and must be a valid path specified in RFC821.  TO is either
      a single recipient path or a list of recipient paths, each
      comforming RFC821.
   
      :HOST and :PORT specifies MTA's host and port.  For SMTP,
             HOST defaults localhost and PORT defaults smtp port.
      :SUBJECT specifies a subject.
      :CC, :BCC, :REPLY-TO  If given, they are used for corresponding
             header fields.
   
      Returns #t on successful operation  Otherwise, a string
      describing the cause of error is returned.


PORTABILITY

  Works with STk-4.0.1.
  Using the following STk-specific features:

    * socket   (make-client-socket)
    * string port (with-input-from-string)
    * regexp   (string->regexp)

  You should provide alternatives to port this code to other Scheme
  implementation.
