        `SMTPc` is simple SMTP client for easy mail sending from CLI. It's dedicated
        for developers, however it's easy to use and every CLI user will be satisfied
        using this.
        
        Main purpose of `SMTPc` is to help developers test and/or verify SMTP servers or
        their SMTP configuration. But of course it can be used in every place you want
        to automate any system, and use predefined messages (with templates) for
        notifications, like daemons or crons.
        
        If you like this tool, just [say thanks](https://saythanks.io/to/marcin%40urzenia.net).
        
        Current stable version
        ----------------------
        
        0.7.0
        
        Features
        --------
        
        * Predefined profiles for using with many SMTP servers
        * Predefined messages for sending messages just by the name

        * Easily add own email headers
        * If you have multiple IP addresses available, choose which one you want to use
        * It's all Python!
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        `SMTPc` should work on any POSIX platform where [Python](http://python.org)
        is available, it means Linux, macOS/OSX etc.
        
        Simplest way is to use Python's built-in package system:
        
            python3 -m pip install smtpc[extended]
        
        It will install `SMTPc` and related packages for best user experience. If you want
        to install simplest version without additions, then start with:
        
            python3 -m pip install smtpc
        
        You can also use [pipx](https://pipxproject.github.io/pipx/) if you don't want to
        mess with system packages and install `SMTPc` in virtual environment:
        
            pipx install smtpc
        
        Voila!
        
        Python version
        --------------
        
        `SMTPc` is tested against Python 3.7+. Older Python versions may work, or may not.
        
        How to use
        ----------
        
        First, add some account you want to use for sending. In this example we are using
        [Sendria](https://github.com/msztolcman/sendria) run on local environment:
        
        ```bash
        smtpc profiles add sendria --host 127.0.0.1 --port 1025
        ```
        
        You can verify:
        ```bash
        smtpc profiles list
        ```
        
        Now, add few messages for future use:
        
        ```bash
        smtpc messages add plain --subject 'Some plain email' --body-plain 'Some plain message body' --from plain@smtpc.net --to receiver@smtpc.net
        smtpc messages add html --subject 'Some html email' --body-html 'Some <b>HTML</b> message body' --from html@smtpc.net --to receiver@smtpc.net
        smtpc messages add alternative --subject 'Some alternative email' --body-plain 'Some plain message body' --body-html 'Some <b>HTML</b> message body' --from alternative@smtpc.net --to receiver@smtpc.net
        ```
        
        And verification:
        ```bash
        smtpc messages list
        ```
        
        Now, let send something:
        
        ```bash
        smtpc send --profile sendria --message alternative
        smtpc send --profile sendria --message plain --subject 'Changed subject for plain'
        ```
        In second example above, we are using predefined message `plain`, but with changed subject.
        
        Of course, if you don't want, you don't need to use predefined profiles and/or messages, you can pass them directly when sending:
        
        ```bash
        smtpc send --host 127.0.0.1 --port 1025 --body-type html --subject 'Some html email' --body-html 'Some <b>HTML</b> message body' --from not-funny@smtpc.net --to receiver@smtpc.net
        ```
        
        But it's not so funny :)
        
        Also you can use your predefined messages as templates:
        
        ```bash
        smtpc messages add template-test --subject 'Some templated email: {{ date }}' --body-plain 'Some templated email body: {{ uuid }}' --from templated@smtpc.net --to receiver@smtpc.net
        smtpc send --profile sendria --message template-test --template-field "date=$(date)" --template-field "uuid=$(uuidgen)"
        ```
        
        And received email subject may looks like:
        
        ```
        Some templated email: Thu Mar 18 19:05:53 CET 2021
        ```
        
        And the body:
        
        ```
        Some templated email body: C21B7FF0-C6BC-47C9-B3AC-5554865487E4
        ```
        
        If there is also available [Jinja2](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com) module,
        you can also use it as templating engine!
        See more in [Templating chapter](#Templating).
        
        Templating
        ----------
        
        Templating can be realized in simple and extended form. In simplest case, when
        [Jinja2](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com) module is not found, `SMTPc` can only
        substitute some placeholders with any data. For example, if you will specify
        subject as:
        ```
        --subject "Now we have {{ date }}"
        ```
        
        and when sending:
        
        ```angular2html
        --template-field "date=$(date +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%Z")"
        ```
        
        And email will look like:
        
        ```
        Now we have 2021-03-19T10:56:31CET
        ```
        
        But it can't handle conditions, loops and any other complicated and convenient example.
        
        If you need some more, you need to install [Jinja2](https://jinja.palletsprojects.com)
        module (more: [Installation](#Installation)).
        Now, you have the full power of one of best templating engines Python has. Here you have an example:
        
        ```bash
        smtpc messages add template-test --subject 'Some of my projects, state on {{ date }}' --from templated@smtpc.net --to receiver@smtpc.net --body-html '<p>Here I am!</p>
        {% if projects %}
        <p>Some of my projects:</p>
        <ul>
        {% for project in projects %}
            <li><a href="https://github.com/msztolcman/{{ project }}">{{ project }}</a></li>
        {% endfor %}
        </ul>
        {% else %}
        <p>I have no projects to show :(</p>
        {% endif %}
        <p>That&#39;s all folks!</p>'
        smtpc send --profile sendria --message template-test --template-field "date=$(date -u +'%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%Z')" --template-field-json='projects=["sendria", "smtpc", "versionner", "ff"]'
        ```
        
        And you will receive an email with subject:
        
        ```
        Some of my projects, state on 2021-03-19T10:03:56UTC
        ```
        
        And body (slightly reformatted here):
        
        ```html
        <p>Here I am!</p>
        <p>Some of my projects:</p>
        <ul>
            <li><a href="https://github.com/msztolcman/sendria">sendria</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://github.com/msztolcman/smtpc">smtpc</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://github.com/msztolcman/versionner">versionner</a></li>
            <li><a href="https://github.com/msztolcman/ff">ff</a></li>
        </ul>
        <p>That&#39;s all folks!</p>
        ```
