sendmail - Mail transfer agent

Sendmail is a Mail Transfer Agent (the program that moves mail from one machine to another). It implements a general internetwork mail routing facility with aliasing and forwarding, automatic routing to network gateways, and flexible configuration.

It does not include a mail user agent, but this means the user can pick whichever one (pine, elm, etc.) she prefers.
