I posted here to send email via cli, but nothing worked.



ssmtp stopped working



My question is NOT a duplicate of the above link.



sendmail does NOT equal ssmtp !!



I even tried sendmail



andy@7_~/Downloads/$  echo "Subject: hello" | sendmail -v 7@yahoo.com < mail.txt

When it says "enter mail", what does that mean?



Can someone please help me find any way that will work?

  • Do not run sendmail directly. Use a proper MUA like mailx or mutt.
