Tips

  • Replies to the sender and all original To/CC recipients.
  • Use --to to add extra recipients to the To field.
  • Use --cc to add new CC recipients.
  • Use --bcc for recipients who should not be visible to others.
  • Use --remove to exclude recipients from the outgoing reply, including the sender or Reply-To target.
  • The command fails if no To recipient remains after exclusions and --to additions.
  • Use -a/--attach to add file attachments. Can be specified multiple times.
  • With --html, the quoted block uses Gmail's gmail_quote CSS classes and preserves HTML formatting. Use fragment tags (<p>, <b>, <a>, etc.) — no <html>/<body> wrapper needed.
  • With --html, inline images in the quoted message (cid: references) will appear broken. Externally hosted images are unaffected.
