grep for "mail_is_blat"
It is found in LYGlobaldefs.h, LYMain.c, LYMail.c and LYPrint.c.

Apparently it always declared and used under SH_EX
except in LYPrint.c where it is used under WIN_EX.
There is an inconsistencies if you compile with one flag but without
another, that is what I am discussing about.

Hiroyuki, is it intended for windows-only or any platform in general
(the latter is strange since UNIX world prefer sendmail definitely)?
