;;; db-mail.el --- Utility Functions for sending mail -*- lexical-binding: t -*- ;;; Commentary: ;; This package consists mostly of utility functions for sending and editing ;; mail, fixing some issues, and extending Gnus in the way I like it. However, ;; the most important feature of is an abstract way to hande remote mail ;; accounts. Theses are stored in the variable `db/mail-accounts’ and consist ;; of various entries denoting how to read mail via IMAP (POP not supported) and ;; how to send mail via SMTP (server, port, protocol, …). Based on the entries ;; in this variable, appropriate settings of `gnus-secondary-select-methods’ are ;; derived automatically by the custom setter of `db/mail-accounts’. Then when ;; inside Gnus, the mail can be read without further configuration. Note that ;; when the "IMAP address" of an entry in `db/mail-accounts’ is empty, it will ;; not be included as an IMAP account in `gnus-secondary-select-methods’. This ;; let’s you specify mail accounts that can be used for sending mail, but that ;; are read not directly via IMAP, but by other means (POP, offlineimap, …). ;; When sending mail, `db/mail-accounts’ is used to determine settings of the ;; relevant variables from `smtpmail’ based on the current value of the "From: " ;; header entry in the mail. If this header entry is set correctly, send ;; `db/set-smtp-server-from-header’ will set these variables automatically. To ;; make this work, however, two things have to be done: ;; ;; - Ensure that the "From: " header is set correctly. In Gnus this can be done ;; by configuring `gnus-posting-style’ accordingly. ;; ;; - Make sure `db/set-smtp-server-from-header’ is called when sending mail. ;; Currently, this function is written to be added as an around advice for ;; `smtpmail-via-smtp’. In the future, this function might be changed to be a ;; valid value for `send-mail-function’ ;; All this functionality is provided under "Mail related customizations". The ;; other headlines provide the aforementioned utility functions. ;;; Code: (require 'cl-lib) (require 'cl-macs) (require 'mail-extr) (require 'epg) (require 'mml-sec) (require 'gnus) ;; Mail related customizations (defun db/-set-gnus-secondary-select-methods (other-gnus-accounts remote-mail-accounts) "Set `gnus-secondary-select-methods’ from OTHER-GNUS-ACCOUNTS and REMOTE-MAIL-ACCOUNTS.
