.. describe:: sendmail_command

     sendmail command. This is the shell command used to send out mails via the sendmail protocol

    :type: string
    :default: "sendmail -t"


.. _sent-box:

.. describe:: sent_box

     where to store outgoing mails, e.g. `maildir:///home/you/mail/Sent`.
     You can use mbox, maildir, mh, babyl and mmdf in the protocol part of the URL.

     .. note:: If you want to add outgoing mails automatically to the notmuch index
               you must use maildir in a path within your notmuch database path.

    :type: mail_container
    :default: None


.. _draft-box:

.. describe:: draft_box

               later access them within alot. This currently only works for
               maildir containers in a path below your notmuch database path.

    :type: mail_container
    :default: None


.. _sent-tags:

.. describe:: sent_tags

.. _encrypt-by-default:

.. describe:: encrypt_by_default

     Alot will try to GPG encrypt outgoing messages by default when this
     is set to `all` or `trusted`.  If set to `all` the message will be
     encrypted for all recipients for who a key is available in the key
     ring.  If set to `trusted` it will be encrypted to all
     recipients if a trusted key is available for all recipients (one
     where the user id for the key is signed with a trusted signature).

     .. note:: If the message will not be encrypted by default you can
               still use the :ref:`toggleencrypt
               <cmd.envelope.toggleencrypt>`, :ref:`encrypt
               <cmd.envelope.encrypt>` and :ref:`unencrypt
               <cmd.envelope.unencrypt>` commands to encrypt it.
     .. note:: The values `True` and `False` are interpreted as `all` and
               `none` respectively.  They are kept for backwards
               compatibility to give users a change to migrate to the new
               option type.  They might become deprecated in future
               versions.

    :type: option, one of ['all', 'none', 'trusted', 'True', 'False', 'true', 'false', 'Yes', 'No', 'yes', 'no', '1', '0']
