Not working to set SMTP in fish shell

[AlbinSjoegren]

Hi,
Just wanted to try this out for some bulk emails and wanted to connect to gmail over smtp.
When I use SMTP_SERVER=smtp.gmail.com I get this error: fish: Unsupported use of '='. In fish, please use 'set SMTP_SERVER smtp.gmail.com'.
I then use that command, aka set SMTP_something something for server username and password but when I go to pigeon connect smtp I get this error

Error: Missing environment variable 'SMTP_SERVER'

Caused by:
    environment variable not found

My guess is that it is caused by me using fish for some reason.
And yes I did run set -a && source .env && set +a and yes the variables are set in the verbose output.

Tested with bash now and that works so the problem is when using fish.

Thanks for your bug report. Could you try the following commands?

• set -x SMTP_SERVER smtp.gmail.com instead of SMTP_SERVER=smtp.gmail.com in the .env file, and
• source .env instead of set -a && source .env && set +a
