xdg-email - command line tool for sending mail using the user's preferred
e-mail composer

Synopsis

xdg-email [--utf8] [--cc address] [--bcc address] [--subject text] [--body text
] [--attach file] [ mailto-uri | address(es) ]

xdg-email { --help | --manual | --version }

Description

xdg-email opens the user's preferred e-mail composer in order to send a mail to
address(es) or mailto-uri. RFC2368 defines mailto: URIs. xdg-email limits
support to, cc, subject and body fields in mailto-uri, all other fields are
silently ignored. address(es) must follow the syntax of RFC822. Multiple
addresses may be provided as separate arguments.

All information provided on the command line is used to prefill corresponding
fields in the user's e-mail composer. The user will have the opportunity to
change any of this information before actually sending the e-mail.

xdg-email is for use inside a desktop session only. It is not recommended to
use xdg-email as root.

Options

--utf8
    Indicates that all command line options that follow are in utf8. Without
    this option, command line options are expected to be encoded according to
    locale. If the locale already specifies utf8 this option has no effect.
    This option does not affect mailto URIs that are passed on the command
    line.
--cc address
    Specify a recipient to be copied on the e-mail.
--bcc address
    Specify a recipient to be blindly copied on the e-mail.
--subject text
    Specify a subject for the e-mail.
--body text
    Specify a body for the e-mail. Since the user will be able to make changes
    before actually sending the e-mail, this can be used to provide the user
    with a template for the e-mail. text may contain linebreaks.
--attach file

Specify an attachment for the e-mail. file must point to an existing file.

Some e-mail applications require the file to remain present after xdg-email
    returns.

--help
    Show command synopsis.
--manual
    Show this manual page.
--version
    Show the xdg-utils version information.

Environment Variables

xdg-email honours the following environment variables:

XDG_UTILS_DEBUG_LEVEL
    Setting this environment variable to a non-zero numerical value makes
    xdg-email do more verbose reporting on stderr. Setting a higher value
    increases the verbosity.

Exit Codes

An exit code of 0 indicates success while a non-zero exit code indicates
failure. The following failure codes can be returned:

1
    Error in command line syntax.
2
    One of the files passed on the command line did not exist.
3
    A required tool could not be found.
4
    The action failed.
5
    No permission to read one of the files passed on the command line.
