Summary
The documentation provides examples for sending email via SMTP using SmtpClient (typically .NET, often Windows-centric) and Windows PowerShell, but does not include Linux-specific tools or examples (such as using sendmail, mailx, or Python scripts on Linux). The inclusion of 'Windows Powershell' as a dedicated section and the absence of Linux command-line or scripting alternatives demonstrates a bias towards Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Add examples using common Linux tools (e.g., sendmail, mailx, swaks) for sending email via SMTP.
- Include a Python example that works cross-platform, with installation instructions for Linux.
- Provide guidance for configuring SMTP on Linux systems, including authentication and TLS.
- Ensure that examples and instructions are clearly labeled for both Windows and Linux users.
- Consider adding a section comparing Windows and Linux approaches, highlighting platform-specific nuances.
