Bug ID: 2659

h-the_exim_command_line.html
OS: All

Quoting
http://exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-the_exim_command_line.html
:

-m
This is apparently a synonym for -om that is accepted by Sendmail,
so Exim treats it that way too.

According to page 1M-528 of
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19457-01/801-6680-1M/801-6680-1M.pdf ,

-om is the command line option for m processing option. And m processing
option does what exim's -om does.

m Send to ‘‘me’’ (the sender). Send message to "me" if the sender is in
an alias expansion.

In short, no need for it to be apparently.
I suggest to replace

-m
This is apparently a synonym for -om that is accepted by Sendmail,
so Exim treats it that way too.

with

-m
With Sendmail, -om command line option is like m processing option.
so Exim treats -m that way too.
