tmpmail: Open email with a specific browser (default is w3m).
$ tmpmail --browser ${browser}
try on your machine

This command is using the "tmpmail" command-line tool and passing an argument to it. The argument used here is "--browser", and it is followed by a value in the form of "${browser}". The specific value of "${browser}" will depend on the context or how this command is being executed.

The "tmpmail" command-line tool is commonly used for creating temporary email addresses for testing or other purposes. It allows users to generate a disposable email address that forwards emails to their primary email inbox, and they can access and read those emails using the "tmpmail" tool.

In this case, the "--browser" argument is used to specify the browser that will be used to open a web-based interface for accessing the generated temporary email address. The "${browser}" placeholder indicates that the actual browser to be used needs to be provided when running this command.

For example, if the value of "${browser}" is "chrome", the command would execute the "tmpmail" tool to open the generated temporary email in a Chrome browser window. The specific functionality and behavior of this command may depend on the implementation details of the "tmpmail" tool itself.
