You can use swaks to send emails with ssl/tls. It's a very useful command
line utility which I have used with nagios
/usr/bin/printf "$MESSAGE$" | /usr/bin/swaks -4 --server
smtp.googlemail.com:587 --from [email protected] --to
[email protected] -tls --auth PLAIN --auth-user [email protected]
--auth-password 7654321 --h-Subject "$SUBJECT$" --body - --hide-all
The other way is to setup stunnel, if your command line utility doesn't
support ssl/tls, but email server require it.
