3. ConfigurationΒΆ

Alot reads a config file in “INI” syntax: It consists of key-value pairs that use “=” as separator and ‘#’ is comment-prefixes. Sections and subsections are defined using square brackets.

The default location for the config file is ~/.config/alot/config. If upon startup this file is not found, a small default configuration (containing mostly standard key bindings) will be copied in its place.

All configs are optional, but if you want to send mails you need to specify at least one account in your config.
