cmsend: chatmail sendmail tool for end-to-end encrypted messages

WORK IN PROGRESS: this is more an explorative study for now

To install use:

pip install cmsend 

To send and receive from a single chatmail relay:

cmsend --init nine.testrun.org   # <-- substitute with the domain you want to set as origin 

To setup a tagged chat using an invite link:

cmsend -t LOG --join "INVITELINK"       # <-- quotes are neccessary because links contain "&"

To send a message to a tagged chat:

echo "hello" | cmsend -t LOG 

To list all chats with tags:

cmsend -l 

To send a message to a tagged chat with an attachment:

cmsend -t LOG -m "here is the file" -a README.md

To show help:

cmsend -h
