# FAQ
## Compose mail from the commandline ([Fedora](/notes/fedora-linux))
### Installation (once)
This will install `s-nail`, a commandline "MUA" (Mail User Agent) with built-in SMTP ("MTA") capability:
```shell
sudo dnf install mailx
```
The command `mail` will become a symlink to `s-nail`. Better verify this using:
```shell
ll -ld $(which mail)
```
### Configuration (once)
```text filename=~/.mailrc
set asksub  
set v15-compat  
set mta=smtps://apikey:SENDGRID_APIKEY_GOES_HERE@smtp.sendgrid.net:465 smtp-auth=login
set from=SENDER_ADDRESS_GOES_HERE
```
```shell
chmod 600 ~/.mailrc
```
### Usage
```shell
mail RECIPIENT_ADDRESS
# Type message here
# Press Ctrl+D to send, Ctrl+C to cancel
```
