Sending an email using the markdown_mail_sender gem

require 'markdown_mail_sender'

user, password = 'alice', 'password'

mgs = MarkdownMailSender.new(user, password, 
        compose_dir: '/tmp/email/compose', sent_dir: '/tmp/email/sent', 
        smtp_host: 'mail.jamesrobertson.eu')

mgs.deliver_all

Save your Markdown file (with a .md file extension) in the compose directory (e.g. /tmp/email/compose). Here's a few examples:

to: jr001@jamesrobertson.eu

subject: Test message 3

TML format** as well as plain text.

Hope it works!
