NBSMTP
From nbSMTP manpage:
- nbSMTP is a lightweight SMTP client. It simply takes a message from STDIN and sends it to a relayhost. A relayhost is meant to be a full SMTP server and it will really send the message.
Installation
Install nbsmtpAUR package.
Forward to a Gmail Mail Server
To configure nbSMTP, you will have to edit its configuration file (~/.nbsmtprc
) and enter your account settings:
~/.nbsmtprc
relayhost=smtp.gmail.com port=587 use_starttls=True fromaddr=myusername@gmail.com auth_user=myusername@gmail.com auth_pass=myultrasecretpassword
Be careful with permissions on this file, it is recommendable to run this:
chmod 600 ~/.nbsmtprc
To test the configuration, create a file (testemail
):
testemail
To: myusername@gmail.com From: myusername@gmail.com Subject: nbsmtp test hello email world
and then run:
/usr/bin/nbsmtp < testemail
