# Send an MMS message to your phone when new emails come in.
# The message will have the number of new mails in the subject
# and the body will contain the From and Subject fields of up to the 3
# most recent new mails. If the new mail count is above 3, there will also
# be 'and more...' at the end.
# Assumes you have a maildir inbox on this machine;
# you can use offlineimap or similar to sync recent mail to a maildir
# or use -l if this machine is actually your mailserver

# import the config file ./.config
# addr=<the address the notification will appear to be sent from>
# phone=<your phone number in email address form (eg, 9876543210@mms.att.net)>
# inbox=<the location of the maildir folder corresponding to the inbox>
# smtp_server=<the address and port (address:port) of your smtp server>
# smtp_user=<the username you use on your smtp server>
# smtp_password<the password to login to the smtp server>
