Himalaya is a CLI email client that lets you manage emails from the terminal using IMAP, SMTP, Notmuch, or Sendmail backends.
This skill is separate from the Hermes Email gateway adapter. The gateway
adapter lets people email the agent and uses Hermes' built-in IMAP/SMTP
adapter; this skill lets the agent operate a mailbox from terminal tools and
requires the external himalaya CLI.
