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

SYNOPSISxdg−email [−−utf8] [−−cc address] [−−bcc address] [−−subject text] [−−body text] [−−attach file] [mailto−uri | address(es)] xdg−email {−−help | −−manual | −−version}

DESCRIPTIONxdg−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 VARIABLESxdg−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 CODESAn 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​.
