Usage

listsend 0.2.2 - Send emails to CSV list from template on CLI
Usage: listsend [OPTIONS] --subject <SUBJECT>
Options:
  -c, --csv <CSV>            CSV file (name,email,data) [default: list.csv]
  -t, --template <TEMPLATE>  Email template file [default: email.tpl]
  -s, --subject <SUBJECT>    Subject of the email
  -H, --html                 Email template is html [default: plain text]
  -d, --delay <DELAY>        Delay between mails in seconds [default: 1]
  -h, --help                 Print help
  -V, --version              Print version

Copy the files in example to your working directory, and edit the .env file with the data and credentials for the SMTP relay, edit email.tpl to the desired content (the fields {{name}}. {{email}} and {{data}} can be used in the template file), and edit list.csv for the recipient's data, where the column header is name,email,data and following lines specify each recipient.

The template can be plain text (default) or html (in which case, supply the --html flag on the commandline). The only mandatory argument is --subject, the rest all have defaults (or no argument).
