Sup passes each email message to an external program to send (config.yaml, option "sendmail"). For example, I personally use msmtp. To queue/delay messages, the solution would be to call an external program with this functionality built in. For example, I haven't used this personally, but perhaps something like msmtp-queue-scheduler may be of interest? <https://github.com/parisni/msmtp-queue-scheduler> (The README references Mutt, however, this should work with any MUA, i.e., should work with Sup.) Side note: I have received your email from 24 July re: keybindings, however, haven't yet looked in the detail required. I'll try to look within approximately the next week if I can, unless someone else on the mailing list beats me to it. :-) Kind regards, Iain ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
