Tool to send messages via Sendgrid/Slack
PyPI package: ppmail
If you spot any problems or have any improvement ideas then feel free to open an issue and I will be glad to look into it for you.
A recommended way of installing the tool is pip install.
Once installed, a command line tool ppmail should be available in your
system's PATH.
The tool is available in PyPI and can be installed using pip:
$ pip install --user ppmail
$ ppmail --help
By default, the tool reads its configuration from ~/.config/ppmail file (the
location can be overridden by setting environment variable XDG_CONFIG_HOME).
If the config file (or directory) does not exist then it will be automatically
created and populated with sample config upon the next run.
$ ppmail --help
usage: ppmail [--version] [--help] [--debug] [--verbose] [-S] [-f SENDER] -t
RECIPIENTS [RECIPIENTS ...] [-c CC [CC ...]] [-s SUBJECT] [-H]
