For my email, I used mpop (download mail) + neomutt + msmtp (send mail). I wanted to learn a bit on how pop and smtp protocol work, so I decided to write my own replacement mpop and msmtp.
This software have limited functionalities: Only those required for my usecase
The goal was to replace mpop ( https://marlam.de/mpop/ ) and msmtp ( https://marlam.de/msmtp/ ) in my mail setup. The code base should be as small as possible.
host neowutran.ovh
port 110
tls starttls
user [email protected]
protocol pop
host neowutran.ovh
port 587
tls starttls
user [email protected]
protocol smtp
host pop.librem.one
port 995
user [email protected]
protocol pop
./pop_smtp
set sendmail = "/home/user/pop_smtp -a [email protected]"
It work and I use it everyday. Support for "login" authentication method. Support for TLS and StartTLS. Support for Qubes OS only. Read the source code for more details, it is small.
