I needed to test whether mail relaying worked with Exim or not. To do so I used this command:
exim -v [email protected]
After this type in your mail contents as shown below and hit CTRL+D
afterwards to send it:
From:[email protected]
Subject: Hello From the CLI
This is a test from the CLI
It’s also possible to use a one-liner:
echo -e "From:[email protected]\nSubject: Hello From the CLI\nThis is a test from the CLI" | exim -v [email protected]
You’ll see the raw output appear on screen, and should see a 250 status code near the end if all went well.
Thank me with a coffee.
I don\'t do this for profit but a small one-time donation would surely put a smile on my face. Thanks!
