Ubuntu 20.04 Mutt 安装使用

The Mutt E-Mail Client - official site

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mutt

一、配置文件

The Mutt E-Mail Client

/etc/Muttrc & /etc/Muttrc.d/

ubuntu@VM-100-22-ubuntu:~$ ls /etc/Muttrc
Muttrc    Muttrc.d/ 
ubuntu@VM-100-22-ubuntu:~$ ls /etc/Muttrc.d/
charset.rc  colors.rc  compressed-folders.rc  gpg.rc  smime.rc

创建 /etc/Muttrc.d/smtp.rc 如下：
本范例，使用office 365邮箱

# Connection
set ssl_starttls=yes
set ssl_force_tls=yes
set ssl_use_sslv3=yes
set timeout=60
set smtp_authenticators="login"
set smtp_url="smtp://mail@xxx.com@smtp.partner.outlook.cn:587"
set content_type="text/html"
#
#  # Outgoing
set realname="mail"
set from="mail@xxx.com"
set smtp_pass="password"

The configuration file ~/.muttrc will be used for each users. If it is not present, then the global config file /etc/Muttrc will be used.

~$ touch ~/.muttrc
~$ sudo chmod 600 ~/.muttrc
~$ nano ~/.muttrc

###
# User info
###

set realname = "alice"
set from = "alice.sub@email.com"
set use_from = no
set envelope_from ="yes"

mailboxes imap://mail.com
set folder="imap://mail.com/INBOX"  
set imap_user="alice" #your IMAP user name or login
set imap_pass="mysecret" #your IMAP password


# If not set in ~/.bashrc:
set spoolfile = /var/mail/alice

二、发送邮件

echo "mail content" | mutt -s "Subject"  xyz@gmail.com

mutt -s "Subject" -e "my_hdr From:abc@gmail.com Content-Type: text/html" xyz@gmail.com < body.html

mutt -s "Subject" \
  -e "my_hdr From: abc@gmail.com" \
  -e "my_hdr Content-Type: text/html" \
  xyz@gmail.com < body.html

三、自定义 header

The Mutt E-Mail Client
linux - Multiple Headers for Mutt Command - Stack Overflow

Usage:

my_hdr string
unmy_hdr { * | field ... }

Sample:

echo "this is a test mail" |mutt -e "my_hdr X-Priority: 1" -s "test" username@xxx.com

X-Priority: 1 意思是设置邮件的重要性为高

set hdrs=yes my_hdr Return-Receipt-To: myself@example.com my_hdr X-Priority: 1 my_hdr Importance: high
