Command line email sending client written in Go.

Emailcli

Because surprisingly, everything else out there just barely fails to be useful to me.

This utility does exactly one thing: wrap a Golang email library in a command line interface.

Install

go get github.com/wrouesnel/emailcli

Usage

email --username [e-mail] --password somepassword \
    --host smtp.gmail.com --port 587 \
    --subject "Test mail" \
    --body "Test Body" [e-mail]

For security, it also supports reading settings from environment variables:

export EMAIL_PASSWORD=somepassword
email --username [e-mail] \
    --host smtp.gmail.com --port 587 \
    --subject "Test mail" \
    --body "Test Body" [e-mail]

All command line variables can be used as environment variables by appending EMAIL_ to the parameter name and capitalizing.
