1.1 What this Book Contains

This book addresses a wide audience of both system administrators and users that aim to use Mailutils programs, and programmers who wish to use Mailutils libraries in their programs. Given this audience, the book is divided in three major parts.

The first part provides a detailed description of each Mailutils utility, and advices on how to use them in various situations. This part is intended for users and system administrators who are using Mailutils programs. If you are not interested in programming using Mailutils, this is the only part you need to read.

Subsequent parts address programmers.

The second part is a tutorial which provides an introduction to programming techniques for writing mail applications using GNU Mailutils.

Finally, the third part contains a complete Mailutils library reference.
