.. index:: outgoing (command)

Command-Line Program

outgoing [<options>] [<msg-file> ...]

You can use outgoing to send fully-composed e-mails directly from the command line with the :command:`outgoing` command. Save your e-mail as a complete :mimetype:`message/rfc822` document and then run outgoing path/to/email/file to send it using the configuration in the default config file (or specify another config file with the --config option). Multiple files can be passed to the command at once to send multiple e-mails. If no files are specified on the command line, the command reads an e-mail from standard input.

Options

.. program:: outgoing


.. option:: -c <file>, --config <file>

    Specify a :ref:`configuration file <configfile>` to use instead of the
    default configuration file


.. option:: -E <file>, --env <file>

    .. versionadded:: 0.2.0

    Load environment variables from the given :file:`.env` file before reading
    the configuration file.  By default, environment variables are loaded from
    the first file named ":file:`.env`" found by searching from the current
    directory upwards.


.. option:: -l <level>, --log-level <level>

    .. versionadded:: 0.2.0

    Set the `logging level`_ to the given value; default: ``INFO``.  The level
    can be given as a case-insensitive level name or as a numeric value.

    .. _logging level: https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html
                       #logging-levels


.. option:: -s <key>, --section <key>

    .. versionadded:: 0.2.0

    Read the configuration from the given table or key in the configuration
    file; defaults to "``outgoing``"


.. option:: --no-section

    .. versionadded:: 0.2.0

    Read the configuration fields from the top level of the configuration file
    instead of expecting them to all be contained below a certain table/key
