NAME
       whom - report to whom a message would go

SYNOPSIS
       whom   [-alias aliasfile]   [-check]  [-nocheck]  [-draft]
            [-draftfolder +folder]            [-draftmessage msg]
            [-nodraftfolder] [file] [-help]

DESCRIPTION
       Whom is used to expand the headers of a message into a set
       of addresses and optionally verify  that  those  addresses
       are deliverable at that time (if `-check' is given).

       The    `-draftfolder +folder'    and   `-draftmessage msg'
       switches invoke the MH draft folder facility.  This is  an
       advanced   (and   highly  useful)  feature.   Consult  the
       Advanced Features section of the MH manual for more infor-
       mation.

       The  files specified by the profile entry "Aliasfile:" and
       any additional alias files given by the `-alias aliasfile'
       switch  will  be read (more than one file, each  preceeded
       by `-alias', can be named).   See  mh-alias (5)  for  more
       information.

BUGS
       With  the  `-check'  option, whom makes no guarantees that
       the addresses listed as being ok are  really  deliverable,
       rather,  an  address  being listed as ok means that at the
       time that whom was run  the  address  was  thought  to  be
       deliverable   by   the   transport   service.   For  local
       addresses, this is absolute;  for  network  addresses,  it
       means  that  the  host  is  known;  for uucp addresses, it
       (often) means that the UUCP network is available for  use.
