Sending mail from the command line

Hi,
I would like to send mail from the command line. How do I set up sendmail so it uses http://gmx.com?

Klaatu did a podcast about this a while ago, although he used mutt and procmail. Look for the 2013-10-30 episode.

You might also check out this link from the show notes.

Here's an article on using sendmail with gmail. It could also be useful.

Hello,
I used this some time ago. It involves msmtp-mta etc., and it shows how to configure it for Gmail, but if you know the SMTP server for gmx (smtp.gmx.com port 25?) it should work.
Best regards,
Esteban
