📫 Himalaya gh-actions

CLI email client written in Rust.

The project is under active development. Do not use in production before the v1.0.0 (see the roadmap).

Motivation

Bringing emails to the terminal is a pain. First, because they are sensitive data. Secondly, the existing TUIs (Mutt, NeoMutt, Alpine, aerc…) are really hard to configure. They require time and patience.

The aim of Himalaya is to extract the email logic into a simple (yet solid) CLI API that can be used directly from the terminal, from scripts, from UIs… Possibilities are endless!
