@korpa I think you're missing the --from flag, otherwise, Pop will want to open a tui to get that info

[korpa]

I think, this is not necessary as I'm using SMTP for sending and have set following env variables:

POP_SMTP_HOST
POP_SMTP_PORT
POP_SMTP_USERNAME
POP_SMTP_PASSWORD

In this case POP uses POP_SMTP_USERNAME as From: address.

If I run the same script manually from bash, it works.

I just added the --from flag to double check if it really is the issue. Sadly nothing changes. I still get the "TTY error".
