Again, -H specifies connection helper (e.g. openssl), not host. To
specify the host use -S.
Look at the relevant portion:
-----
// N.B. -H and -S are mutually exclusive so they do not spoil opt_connect
// connection helper ordered? ->
if (opts & OPT_H) {
const char *args[] = { "sh", "-c", opt_connect, NULL };
// plug it in
launch_helper(args);
-----
I posted that sendmail usage is slightly broken: the first occurences
of -H and -S are rudimentary.

The timeout should specify for how long to wait a response from the server.
Right now I see it is not involved. I'll take care of this as soon as I can.
BTW, do our understandings of timeout here coincide? For someone may
(quite validly) think of timeout as of overall SMTP session timeout.
