Hi!

a few years back, before the Pandemic, we had a serious Shellworld crash. At the time I sought to contact them, did not reach a person, however. Likewise  at the time, I believe? they did not allow mail to be sent. it has been a few years.

If you use a Linux mail client to access your gmail from a shell,
then the mail itself will still be stored and sent by google,
not directly from your shell account. Note that this only works
with mail providers which support imap and smtp and with clients
which support the security protocols required by the providers.

For some mail providers, one first had to enable imap etc. access
using a menu item on their webmail portals. GMX & web.de are two
mail providers having that issue as far as I remember.

Regards, Eric

PS: The older POP3 only allowed access to the inbox, while IMAP
also allows access to your other mail folders, so I expect most
mail providers to support IMAP now.
