Summary
The documentation provides examples for sending email via SMTP using SmtpClient (typically .NET, often Windows-centric) and Windows PowerShell, but does not include equivalent Linux or cross-platform command-line examples (e.g., using sendmail, mailx, or Python scripts on Linux). Windows tools and patterns are emphasized, with no mention of Linux-native tools or instructions.
Recommendations
- Add examples for sending email via SMTP using Linux command-line tools such as sendmail, mailx, or swaks.
- Include cross-platform scripting examples, such as Python scripts that work on both Windows and Linux.
- Ensure that the documentation explicitly mentions Linux support and provides parity in instructions for both Windows and Linux environments.
- Consider reordering or grouping examples so that Windows and Linux instructions are presented equally, rather than Windows-first.
