CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT(3)	    Library Functions Manual	    CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT(3)

NAME
     CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT - list of SMTP mail recipients

SYNOPSIS
     #include <curl/curl.h>

     CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT,
			       struct curl_slist *rcpts);

DESCRIPTION
     Pass a pointer to a linked list of recipients to pass to the server in your
     SMTP  mail  request. The linked list should be a fully valid list of struct
     curl_slist structs properly filled in. Use curl_slist_append(3)  to  create
     the list and curl_slist_free_all(3) to clean up an entire list.

     libcurl  does not copy the list, it needs to be kept around until after the
     transfer has completed.

     When performing a mail transfer, each recipient should be specified  within
     a pair of angled brackets (<>). Should you not use an angled bracket as the
     first  character,	libcurl  assumes you provided a single email address and
     encloses that address within brackets for you.

     In order to specify DSN parameters (as per RFC 3461), the address has to be
     written in angled brackets, followed by the parameters.

     When performing an address  verification  (VRFY  command),  each  recipient
     should be specified as the username or username plus domain (as per Section
     3.5 of RFC 5321).

     When performing a mailing list expand (EXPN command), each recipient should
     be specified using the mailing list name, such as Friends or London-Office.

     Using  this option multiple times makes the last set list override the pre-
     vious ones. Set it to NULL to disable its use again.

DEFAULT
     NULL

PROTOCOLS
     This functionality affects smtp only

EXAMPLE
     int main(void)
     {
       CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
	 CURLcode result;
	 struct curl_slist *list;
	 list = curl_slist_append(NULL, "root@localhost");
	 list = curl_slist_append(list, "person@example.com");
	 list = curl_slist_append(list, "<other@example.com> NOTIFY=SUCCESS");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "smtp://example.com/");
	 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT, list);
	 result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
	 curl_slist_free_all(list);
	 curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
     }

AVAILABILITY
     Added in curl 7.20.0

RETURN VALUE
     curl_easy_setopt(3) returns a CURLcode indicating success or error.

     CURLE_OK (0) means everything was OK, non-zero means an error occurred, see
