I've fixed the issues Christopher listed below, and a couple more. 2.3.0-2 is now available.
It now defaults to using ssmtp. If you want to use SMTP, you will need to run email-config. Package setup.hint: === @ email category: Mail requires: cygwin sdesc: "Command line sending of email with attachments, optional GnuPG" ldesc: "Command line sending of email, optionally with GnuPG encryption. Email is a simple command-line program to send emails. It can be configured to use either your sendmail installation or directly via SMTP. It supports binary attachments, and a simple text based address book, with groups. Also, if GnuPG is installed, it can digitally sign and encrypt outgoing emails." cur: 2.3.0-2 Download: === http://smithii.com/files/cygwin/email/email-2.3.0-2.tar.bz2 http://smithii.com/files/cygwin/email/email-2.3.0-2-src.tar.bz2 http://smithii.com/files/cygwin/email/setup.hint invasive one-line installer: wget -q -O - http://smithii.com/files/cygwin/email/get.sh.txt | sh -Ross > Christopher Faylor wrote: > I tried this out and noticed three things. > > 1) Should SMTP_AUTH be set in /etc/email/email.conf?
