CLI email client

*The project is under active development. Do not use in production before the
`v1.0.0` (see the [roadmap](https://github.com/soywod/himalaya/milestone/5)).*

## Motivation

Bringing emails to the terminal is a *pain*. First, because they are sensitive
data. Secondly, the existing TUIs ([Mutt](http://www.mutt.org/),
[NeoMutt](https://neomutt.org/), [Alpine](https://alpine.x10host.com/),
[aerc](https://aerc-mail.org/)…) are really hard to configure. They require time
and patience.

The aim of Himalaya is to extract the email logic into a simple (yet solid) CLI
API that can be used directly from the terminal, from scripts, from UIs…
Possibilities are endless!
