Trying to setup emailproxy on macOS 14.7

[kourosh2]

Hi,

I am trying to setup emailproxy on macOS 14.7. I have installed emailproxy in my Python virtual environment "main" with Python 3.12.5, per instructions:

python -m pip install emailproxy

Below is the output of python -m pip list in the virtual environment. However, after I run emailproxy, I get `NameError: name 'SystemConfiguration' is not defined.

Thanks,
Kourosh

Thanks for reporting this. SystemConfiguration is used in GUI mode, and you've installed the non-GUI version of the proxy. But the error message is meant to be more helpful than that – I'll fix this.

To fix your issue, either install the GUI dependencies (via python -m pip install emailproxy[gui]), or run in no-GUI mode: python -m emailproxy --no-gui.

[kourosh2]

Thank you for quick response. I was using zsh shell and apparently zsh does not like brackets in names. So python-m pip install emailproxy[gui] did not work for me. I escape them with backslashes and now installation went through. Will start configuration now, fingers crossed.
