+Anope SMTP Client
+
+ - Provided with Anope is a simple SMTP client which can be used to replace programs like
+SendMail in some cases.
+
+ - To use the SMTP client find the line in your services.conf for the "SendMailPath", enter
+the path to your services installation directory, followed by the "anopesmtp" and the IP address
+of a valid SMTP server. It should look something like
+
+SendMailPath "/home/usersname/services/anopesmtp 194.97.50.135"
+
+ - If you run into a problem you can compile a debug into the code by opening smtp.h and at the
+bottom you should find "smtp_debug" change the 0 to a 1 and recompile the code. This should
+generate a log file of what happened when it attempted to connect to the SMTP server.
