+/* NAME
+/*	mail_command_client 3
+/* SUMMARY
+/*	single-command client
+/* SYNOPSIS
+/*	#include <mail_proto.h>
+/*
+/*	int	mail_command_client(class, name, type, attr, ...)
+/*	const char *class;
+/*	const char *name;
+/*	int	type;
+/*	const char *attr;
+/* DESCRIPTION
+/*	This module implements a client interface for single-command
+/*	clients: a client that sends a single command and expects
+/*	a single completion status code.
+/*
+/*	Arguments:
+/* .IP class
+/*	Service type: MAIL_CLASS_PUBLIC or MAIL_CLASS_PRIVATE
+/* .IP name
+/*	Service name (master.cf).
+/* .IP "type, attr, ..."
+/*	Attribute information as defined in attr_print(3).
+/* DIAGNOSTICS
+/*	The result is -1 if the request could not be sent, otherwise
+/*	the result is the status reported by the server.
+/*	Warnings: problems connecting to the requested service.
+/*	Fatal: out of memory.
+/* SEE ALSO
+/*	attr_print(3), send attributes over byte stream
+/*	mail_command_server(3), server interface
+/*	mail_proto(3h), client-server protocol
