Dear Ivan:

The Lynx browser's that I'm aware of began as both a 16-bit and 32-bit MS-DOS 
internet TEXT browser.  It continues development, e.g.:

http://users.ohiohills.com/fmacall/

Here is a Hotlink to the 32-bit out-of-the-box version that I use to surf the 
internet:

http://www.mninter.net/~pfourier/lynx_w32.zip

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

LYNX W32 SENDMAIL ARGUMENTS:

(E:\TMP\20430798.txt -t "address@hidden" -s "SUBJECT TEST"  -c "address@hidden, 
address@hidden")

SUMMARY:

E:\TMP\20430798.txt                                         ;path to ASCII editor 
(EDIT.COM) generated Email "body".
-t "address@hidden"                                    ;"mailto:"; TAG
-s "SUBJECT TEST"                                           ;"Subject"
-c "address@hidden, address@hidden"               ;"CC"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Please note that the msmtp w32 build you reference does not recognize these 
arguments generated by the Lynx' one in particular:
-s (subject)
-c (CC)


Sincerely,
Larry
