The package description says MasqMail, the homepage says either
masqmail or (at least in the German PDF docs) Masqmail. Okay, let's
standardise on Masqmail.

That's "unqualified address expansion", but reshuffle:
This is most likely the machine's hostname. It is used in the SMTP
greetings banner and generated Message-ID fields, as well as for
expansion of unqualified addresses, and so on.

Translate the Latin, in case this makes it look like a redundant
extra criterion (instead of an explanation of the previous one):
Please enter a list, separated with semicolons (;), of hosts which are
on the local network. That is, they should be always reachable, without a
dialup connection. Mail to these hosts will be delivered immediately,
without checking for the online status.
(Also reordering the first line to avoid a really rather unlikely
misinterpretation involving semicolons on my LAN.)

Saying that they're different is a bit pointless. So is saying
there are two of them, I suppose, but that's the normal idiom:
Masqmail has two ways of determining whether it is online or not:
"file" and "pipe".

I'd make that:
The format is "-q", followed by a numeric value and one of the letters
s, m, h, d, or w, for seconds, minutes, hours, days, or weeks,
respectively. For instance, "-q10m" defines a ten-minute interval
between runs.
.
Reasonable values are between five minutes (-q5m) and two hours (-q2h).
One of those rare cases where "respectively" is just the right word.

Tweak it slightly to reduce the attraction of "a connection such as
a server":
Masqmail is an MTA (mail transport agent) and POP3 client for hosts
with no permanent network connection, such as home network servers
or notebook computers. It has special support for connections to
different Internet Service Providers.

Description: mail transport agent for intermittently connected hosts
Masqmail is an MTA (mail transport agent) and POP3 client for hosts
with no permanent network connection, such as home network servers
or notebook computers. It has special support for connections to
different Internet Service Providers.
.
In these cases, Masqmail is a slim replacement for full-blown MTAs
such as Sendmail, Exim, Qmail or Postfix. The POP3 client can be
a small replacement for other full-featured tools like Fetchmail.
