Package: pius
Version: 2.2.1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The manpage for pius is written by Debian. The -S option is incorrectly
documented. The manpage says thay -S is an alias for --mail-tls and
will make pius use STARTTLS when talking to the SMTP server. However,
pius --help shows that -S is equal to --no-mail-tls and will, instead,
not use STARTTLS when talking to the SMTP server. Also, there is no
--mail-tls option at all.

As a consequence, the documentation for -u states that -S is implied.
However, using -u and -S simultaneously will, instead, turn off -S,
as shown by the following warning:

> NOTE: -u is present, turning off -S.

Thank you.
