Hello,
until some time ago I was able to send emails from Cygwin using the
email-command. My provider has recently made the following changes:
- The use of STARTTLS is mandatory.
- TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1 are no longer supported.
One of these changes has caused the email-command to stop working. I
have added the parameter "USE_TLS = 'true'" to the .email.conf-file.
Are TLS versions 1.2 and 1.3 supported by email?
How can I send emails from Cygwin in a simple way? Which packages are
required?
I have been told that configuring sendmail is quite complicated.
Thank you very much.
