# Himalaya Configuration Reference
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration file location: `~/.config/himalaya/config.toml`
|
||||
|
||||
## Minimal IMAP + SMTP Setup
|
||||
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
[accounts.default]
|
||||
email = "user@example.com"
|
||||
display-name = "Your Name"
|
||||
default = true
|
||||
|
||||
# IMAP backend for reading emails
|
||||
backend.type = "imap"
|
||||
backend.host = "imap.example.com"
|
||||
backend.port = 993
|
||||
backend.encryption.type = "tls"
|
||||
backend.login = "user@example.com"
|
||||
backend.auth.type = "password"
|
||||
backend.auth.raw = "your-password"
|
||||
|
||||
# SMTP backend for sending emails
|
||||
message.send.backend.type = "smtp"
|
||||
message.send.backend.host = "smtp.example.com"
|
||||
message.send.backend.port = 587
|
||||
message.send.backend.encryption.type = "start-tls"
|
||||
message.send.backend.login = "user@example.com"
|
||||
message.send.backend.auth.type = "password"
|
||||
message.send.backend.auth.raw = "your-password"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Password Options
|
||||
|
||||
### Raw password (testing only, not recommended)
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
backend.auth.raw = "your-password"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Password from command (recommended)
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
backend.auth.cmd = "pass show email/imap"
|
||||
# backend.auth.cmd = "security find-generic-password -a user@example.com -s imap -w"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### System keyring (requires keyring feature)
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
backend.auth.keyring = "imap-example"
|
||||
```
|
||||
Then run `himalaya account configure <account>` to store the password.
|
||||
|
||||
## Gmail Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
[accounts.gmail]
|
||||
email = "you@gmail.com"
|
||||
display-name = "Your Name"
|
||||
default = true
|
||||
|
||||
backend.type = "imap"
|
||||
backend.host = "imap.gmail.com"
|
||||
backend.port = 993
|
||||
backend.encryption.type = "tls"
|
||||
backend.login = "you@gmail.com"
|
||||
backend.auth.type = "password"
|
||||
backend.auth.cmd = "pass show google/app-password"
|
||||
|
||||
message.send.backend.type = "smtp"
|
||||
message.send.backend.host = "smtp.gmail.com"
|
||||
message.send.backend.port = 587
|
||||
message.send.backend.encryption.type = "start-tls"
|
||||
message.send.backend.login = "you@gmail.com"
|
||||
message.send.backend.auth.type = "password"
|
||||
message.send.backend.auth.cmd = "pass show google/app-password"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** Gmail requires an App Password if 2FA is enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
## iCloud Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
[accounts.icloud]
|
||||
email = "you@icloud.com"
|
||||
display-name = "Your Name"
|
||||
|
||||
backend.type = "imap"
|
||||
backend.host = "imap.mail.me.com"
|
||||
backend.port = 993
|
||||
backend.encryption.type = "tls"
|
||||
backend.login = "you@icloud.com"
|
||||
backend.auth.type = "password"
|
||||
backend.auth.cmd = "pass show icloud/app-password"
|
||||
|
||||
message.send.backend.type = "smtp"
|
||||
message.send.backend.host = "smtp.mail.me.com"
|
||||
message.send.backend.port = 587
|
||||
message.send.backend.encryption.type = "start-tls"
|
||||
message.send.backend.login = "you@icloud.com"
|
||||
message.send.backend.auth.type = "password"
|
||||
message.send.backend.auth.cmd = "pass show icloud/app-password"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** Generate an app-specific password at appleid.apple.com
|
||||
|
||||
## Folder Aliases
|
||||

|
||||
```toml
|
||||
[accounts.default.folder.alias]
|

# Message Composition with MML (MIME Meta Language)
|
||||
|
||||
Himalaya uses MML for composing emails. MML is a simple XML-based syntax that compiles to MIME messages.
|
||||
|
||||
## Basic Message Structure
|
||||
|
||||
An email message is a list of **headers** followed by a **body**, separated by a blank line:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
From: sender@example.com
|
||||
To: recipient@example.com
|
||||
Subject: Hello World
|
||||
|
||||
This is the message body.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Headers
|
||||
|
||||
Common headers:
|
||||
- `From`: Sender address
|
||||
- `To`: Primary recipient(s)
|
||||
- `Cc`: Carbon copy recipients
|
||||
- `Bcc`: Blind carbon copy recipients
|
||||
- `Subject`: Message subject
|
||||
- `Reply-To`: Address for replies (if different from From)
|
||||
- `In-Reply-To`: Message ID being replied to
|
||||
|
||||
### Address Formats
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
To: user@example.com
|
||||
To: John Doe <john@example.com>
|
||||
To: "John Doe" <john@example.com>
|
||||
To: user1@example.com, user2@example.com, "Jane" <jane@example.com>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Plain Text Body
|
||||
|
||||
Simple plain text email:
|
||||
```
|
||||
From: alice@localhost
|
||||
To: bob@localhost
|
||||
Subject: Plain Text Example
|
||||
|
||||
Hello, this is a plain text email.
|
||||
No special formatting needed.
|
||||
|
||||
Best,
|
||||
Alice
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## MML for Rich Emails
|
||||
|
||||
### Multipart Messages
|
||||
|
||||
Alternative text/html parts:
|
||||
```
|
||||
From: alice@localhost
|
||||
To: bob@localhost
|
||||
Subject: Multipart Example
|
||||
|
||||
<#multipart type=alternative>
|
||||
This is the plain text version.
|
||||
<#part type=text/html>
|
||||
<html><body><h1>This is the HTML version</h1></body></html>
|
||||
<#/multipart>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Attachments
|
||||
|
||||
Attach a file:
|
||||
```
|
||||
From: alice@localhost
|
||||
To: bob@localhost
|
||||
Subject: With Attachment
|
||||
|
||||
Here is the document you requested.
|
||||
|
||||
<#part filename=/path/to/document.pdf><#/part>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Attachment with custom name:
|
||||
```
|
||||
<#part filename=/path/to/file.pdf name=report.pdf><#/part>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Multiple attachments:
|
||||
```
|
||||
<#part filename=/path/to/doc1.pdf><#/part>
|
||||
<#part filename=/path/to/doc2.pdf><#/part>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Inline Images
|
||||
|
||||
Embed an image inline:
|
||||
```
|
||||
From: alice@localhost
|
||||
To: bob@localhost
|
||||
Subject: Inline Image
|
||||
|
||||
<#multipart type=related>
|
||||
<#part type=text/html>
|
||||
<html><body>
|
||||
<p>Check out this image:</p>
|
||||
<img src="cid:image1">
|
||||
</body></html>
|
||||
<#part disposition=inline id=image1 filename=/path/to/image.png><#/part>
|
||||
<#/multipart>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Mixed Content (Text + Attachments)
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
From: alice@localhost
|
||||
To: bob@localhost
|
||||
Subject: Mixed Content
|
||||
|
||||
<#multipart type=mixed>
|
||||
<#part type=text/plain>
|
||||
Please find the attached files.
|
||||
|
||||
Best,
|
||||
Alice
|
||||
<#part filename=/path/to/file1.pdf><#/part>
|
||||
<#part filename=/path/to/file2.zip><#/part>
|
||||
<#/multipart>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## MML Tag Reference
|
||||
|
||||
### `<#multipart>`
|
||||
Groups multiple parts together.
|
||||
- `type=alternative`: Different representations of same content
|
||||
- `type=mixed`: Independent parts (text + attachments)
|
||||
- `type=related`: Parts that reference each other (HTML + images)
|
||||
|
||||
### `<#part>`
|
||||
Defines a message part.
|
||||
- `type=<mime-type>`: Content type (e.g., `text/html`, `application/pdf`)
|
||||
- `filename=<path>`: File to attach
|
||||
- `name=<name>`: Display name for attachment
|
||||
- `disposition=inline`: Display inline instead of as attachment
|
||||
- `id=<cid>`: Content ID for referencing in HTML
|
||||
|
||||
## Composing from CLI
|
||||
|
||||
### Interactive compose
|
||||
Opens your `$EDITOR`:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
himalaya message write
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Reply (opens editor with quoted message)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
himalaya message reply 42
|
||||
himalaya message reply 42 --all # reply-all
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Forward
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
himalaya message forward 42
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Send from stdin
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cat message.txt | himalaya template send
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Prefill headers from CLI
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
himalaya message write \
|
||||
-H "To:recipient@example.com" \
|
||||
-H "Subject:Quick Message" \
|
||||
"Message body here"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Tips
|
||||
|
||||
- The editor opens with a template; fill in headers and body.
|
||||
- Save and exit the editor to send; exit without saving to cancel.
|
||||
- MML parts are compiled to proper MIME when sending.
|
||||
- Use `himalaya message export --full` to inspect the raw MIME structure of received emails.
