Mutt!

I have some thing stored on my office computer, but it is not simple to access from outside. The only way is using jump machine by ssh. If I want to get some files out, I must send it to jump machine and then fetch it.

If the file is large, I can bear the inconvenience. But if files are small and must be send a lot of times, it really made me mad!

So, using a email client for sending small files as attachment is a good idea! After searching, I found mutt is very good!

Simplly install:

$ sudo apt install mutt msmtp

Simplly config:

$ sudo vim /etc/Muttrc

# add the following at the end of file
set sendmail="/usr/bin/msmtp"
set use_from=yes
set realname="My Name"
set from=xxx@163.com
set envelope_from=yes

$ vim ~/.msmtprc

# add the following
account default
host smtp.163.com
from xxx@163.com
auth plain
user xxx
password 123456
logfile ~/.msmtp.log

$ chmod 600 ./msmtprc
$ touch .msmtp.log

Then, send simple mail to xxxx@qq.com:

$ echo "Mail Content!" | mutt -s "Mail Title!" xxxx@qq.com

Or, send mail with an attchment to xxxx@qq.com and cc to yyy@qq.com

$ echo "Attach Mail" | mutt -s "Mail Title! Attached!" -a path-to-file -- xxxx@qq.com -c yyy@qq.com

Life become better now!
