carmailer
=========
Java program to send a mail to multiple recipients.
Provide the following on the command line:
* SMTP authentication parameters: server domain name, port, username, password
* A file with a list of e-mail addresses
* A subject
* A file with the body of the message in HTML or plain text format
* Optional parameters to configure the content-type, charset, and sending behavior. See the usage.
The program will then send an e-mail to each recipient in the list.
If the mail content is HTML, then the e-mail will be sent as a multi-part mail in both plain text and in HTML.
If the mail content is plain text, then the e-mail will be sent as plain text.
To prevent spam, messages are sent in batches, with a delay between each batch.
Usage:
-----
1. Build:
$ ant jar
2. Run with no arguments to see the usage:
$ java -jar bin/carmailer.jar
```

--output-folder : if specified, each mail will be written to a file in this folder
--charset : specify the charset for reading and writing. By default the charset is guessed from the content of the file or the http-equiv meta tag in the html file.
