About:
Pop is a command-line email client that allows users to send emails directly from their terminal using SMTP. It provides a simple, scriptable interface for sending messages with attachments, HTML content, and custom headers. The tool is particularly valuable for developers and system administrators who need to automate email notifications or integrate email functionality into their CLI workflows.
Key Features:
  • Send emails via SMTP from terminal
  • Support for HTML and plain text emails
  • Attach files to emails
  • Customizable email headers
  • Scriptable and automation-friendly
Use Cases:
  • Automated system notifications and alerts
  • Integration with CI/CD pipelines for email reports
  • Quick email sending during development and debugging
Alternatives:
  • mutt – Full-featured terminal email client with IMAP/POP3 support, more complex than pop
  • sendemail – Perl-based command-line email tool with similar functionality but different implementation
