bulk-mail-cli v2

[kumarabhirup]

After many requests by 10+ people about feature requests that'll make bulk-mail-cli a very useful and trusted application for mail delivery, I am considering about compiling all the advancements together and call it "bulk-mail-cli v2".

I am glad to introduce @aorelhas and @sanfernoronha as two new maintainers of this project. We three will take the project forward for building the "bulk-mail-cli v2".

Here are the features you'll see in bulk-mail-cli v2 💪

• Major change: bulk-mail-cli v2 will be less GUI based. That is, bulk-mail-cli v2 will work on configuration files so that automation could be done on cloud servers.
• Feature: Mail Intervals
• Feature: Randomize several words in Subject and Mail body by using ${hi|hello} syntax.
• Feature: Allow users to attach files up to 25MB.

Possible features I thinking about including, but need some discussion before making those features.

• A system where --continue command-line flag would continue sending mails from where it left.
• Feature: --num-start-from and --num-end-with flags to choose from the CSV about how many people to mail.
• Feature: (configurable) pause between transmission of two mails random, by supplying two parameters - min pause time and max pause time. E.g. 10 secs and 20 secs, and the real-time paused is a randomly chosen value between 10 and 20 secs.

Thanks to C. Conrad for the valuable feedback.

Rest all the features from v1 will be implemented in v2. We hope to create it soon. 🔥

But first, I would like to ensure that bulk-mail-cli v1 works on Windows machines. See issue: #14.

Support for Windows added. #14 closed. I guess now we can start working on bulk-mail-cli v2.
