+.SH NAME
+mconnect \- connect to SMTP mail server socket
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+\fBmconnect\fR [\fB-p\fR \fIport\fR] [\fB-r\fR] [\fIhostname\fR]
+.fi
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.sp
+.LP
+The \fBmconnect\fR utility opens a connection to the mail server on a given
+host, so that it can be tested independently of all other mail software. If no
+host is given, the connection is made to the local host. Servers expect to
+speak the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (\fBSMTP\fR) on this connection. Exit
+by typing the \fBquit\fR command. Typing \fBEOF\fR sends an end of file to the
+server. An interrupt closes the connection immediately and exits.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.sp
+.LP
+The following options are supported:
+.sp
+.ne 2
+.mk
+.na
+\fB\fB-p\fR\fIport\fR\fR
+.ad
+.RS 10n
+.rt
+Specify the port number instead of the default \fBSMTP\fR port (number 25) as
+the next argument.
+.RE

+.ne 2
+.mk
+.na
+\fB\fB-r\fR\fR
+.ad
+.RS 10n
