New
mailos whoamifor resolved send identity. Runmailos whoamifrom any project folder to see exactly whichFromaddress, signature, and credentialsmailos sendwill use, along with the source each value resolved from. See Env Command.mailos env --exportfor shell-safe send defaults. Emits non-secret send values (MAILOS_EMAIL_ADDRESS,MAILOS_FROM_EMAIL,MAILOS_FROM_NAME) asexportstatements so AI clients, IDE integrations, and other tools that only read real environment variables can pick up values resolved from a projectemailos.json. Runeval "$(mailos env --export)". Secrets are never exported. See Env Command.- Apple Mail forwarded context in
mailos send. When you paste forwarded content copied from Apple Mail into a send body, EmailOS now detects the forwarded headers and threads the outgoing message correctly. See Forward Command and Send Command. - Forward from a macOS Mail deeplink.
mailos send --forward-message-linkacceptsmessage://...links copied from Mail.app or Raycast, while--forward-message-idremains the portable raw Message-ID option. See macOS Mail Integration and Send Command.
Updates
- Project sender policy is now authoritative. When the nearest
emailos.jsonsetsfrom_address, it controls the outgoingFromaddress formailos sendand overridesMAILOS_FROM_EMAIL. Passing--fromor--accountno longer changes the sender for a project that pins one — the CLI warns and keeps the project value. Updateemailos.jsonto change the sender. See File Config and Send Command. mailos reponow reportsemailos.json. The repo diagnostic command lists the project config alongside.env.mailos,.env, and./.email/config.json, so you can see at a glance which files contribute to send resolution. See Repo Command.
Fixes
- Better spacing before inline attachment previews. Send output now includes consistent spacing before inline attachment previews, making the rendered email easier to read.
- More reliable Apple Mail deeplinks. MailOS now emits fully encoded
message://%3c...%3elinks and checks the selected Mail message before slower mailbox scans when resolving Apple Mail forwarding context.
