FAQPage Schema
How do I manage IMAP email directly from the terminal?▼

You can manage IMAP email from the terminal using Himalaya, a CLI that supports listing folders, reading messages, composing, replying, forwarding, and searching across multiple accounts via a local configuration file.

What do I need to configure before sending SMTP email via a CLI?▼

To send SMTP email via a CLI, you need the Himalaya CLI installed, a local configuration at ~/.config/himalaya/config.toml, and valid credentials for your IMAP and SMTP backends.

Can I handle multiple email accounts and attachments in a terminal workflow?▼

Yes, terminal email workflows support multiple accounts and MIME-based attachment handling, allowing you to attach files, export raw MIME, and draft messages without leaving the command line interface.

Does terminal email management work with different backends like Sendmail or Notmuch?▼

Terminal email management supports multiple backends including IMAP/SMTP, Notmuch, and Sendmail, providing flexible workflows for rapid inbox triage, archiving, and message composition directly from the terminal.

What are the limitations of using a CLI for email composition and triage?▼

Using a CLI for email composition requires local configuration and backend credentials, and it operates entirely within the terminal, meaning users must be comfortable with command-line interfaces for tasks like searching and moving messages.
