You now what : whatever. You seem not to want to read any manual, use
google or trust anyone that went before. Fine. The wonderful thing about
open source and communities is that we can make our own choices. Me? I
prefer to battle through and use what went before. If you want to
reinvent the wheel every time that is your choice and I respect that. I
wonder why you don't just write your own mail system to be honest since
looking at the manual or using google is clearly not an option for you.

Best of luck!
