Hello, Please see this, as to me it looks like it should work as mutt at least works with this type of addressing: mail -E"set sendmail=sendmail:/home/admin/bin/sendmail" -s "Subject here" -a "From: Jean <[email protected]>" "[email protected] <[email protected]>" --content-type=text/plain < /run/user/1001/text-file mail: Cannot parse address `[email protected] <[email protected]>': Malformed email address I think that first part of this below: "[email protected] <[email protected]>" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ should be thought of as name for the email address if there is <[email protected]> as second part, isn't it? I may see that if I put it in double quotes like "\"[email protected]\" <[email protected]>" that in that case it works. What is correct here to do? Should `mail' process it without double quotes? Should I only use double quotes?
