Robin Jarry 14ceca3200 address-book-cmd: be more lenient with errors
Instead of failing completely when address-book-cmd returns an invalid
line, ignore the line and report a warning in the logs.

Do not wait for 100 "valid" addresses before bailing out as the command
could only output garbage in large quantities. The issue of the command
not printing any new line characters still exists. We could address this
but I think it would be overkill.

aerc

builds.sr.ht status GitHub macOS CI status

aerc is an email client for your terminal.

This is a fork of the original aerc by Drew DeVault.

A short demonstration can be found on https://aerc-mail.org/

Join the IRC channel: #aerc on irc.libera.chat for end-user support, and development.

Usage

On its first run, aerc will copy the default config files to ~/.config/aerc on Linux or ~/Library/Preferences/aerc on MacOS (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/aerc if set) and show the account configuration wizard.

If you redirect stdout to a file, logging output will be written to that file:

$ aerc > log

Note that the example HTML filter (off by default), additionally needs w3m and dante to be installed.

Documentation

Also available as man pages:

User contributions and integration with external tools:

Installation

Binary Packages

Recent versions of aerc are available on:

And likely other platforms.

From Source

Install the dependencies:

  • go (>=1.16) (Go versions are supported until their end-of-life; support for older versions may be dropped at any time due to incompatibilities or newer required language features.)
  • scdoc

Then compile aerc:

$ make

aerc optionally supports notmuch. To enable it, you need to have a recent version of notmuch, including the header files (notmuch.h). Then compile aerc with the necessary build tags:

$ GOFLAGS=-tags=notmuch make

To install aerc locally:

# make install

By default, aerc will install config files to directories under /usr/local/aerc, and will search for templates and stylesets in these locations in order:

  • ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/aerc
  • ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/aerc
  • /usr/local/share/aerc
  • /usr/share/aerc

At build time it is possible to add an extra location to this list and to use that location as the default install location for config files by setting the PREFIX option like so:

# make PREFIX=/custom/location
# make install PREFIX=/custom/location

This will install templates and other config files to /custom/location/share/aerc, and man pages to /custom/location/share/man. This extra location will have lower priority than the XDG locations but higher than the fixed paths.

Anyone can contribute to aerc. Please refer to the contribution guidelines
