Description
-----------
Configures the binary executed for ``mode="sendmail"``. The default
``/usr/sbin/sendmail`` follows the standard local mail submission
interface. Ommail verifies that the configured binary is executable before
attempting delivery.

Ommail invokes the binary without a shell and passes recipients as
separate arguments.
