Password manager integration

[bmclean2]

Would be nice to be able to call a command line password manager in the config file. Right now, I'm unable to use mailmerge with davmail as an intermediary to an exchange server because it doesn't handle the password request correctly.

Could elaborate a little more about what this might look like?

In the config file you could have an optional line like

passcmd = "pass [email protected]"

or

passwordeval = "lpass show --password [email protected]"

Including such a line would bypass the password prompt.

Seems like a reasonable idea for a feature.

I know this old for @bmclean2 , but for anyone else, considering you are starting with python, you could write a wrapper for mailmerge and see if you passsword manager can handle that ? 1Password for example has tnice cli that lets you extract and leverage a token
