Regarding the following, written by "Daniel Shahaf" on 2021-12-31 at 02:16 Uhr

The two consecutive colons on the -a line mean the -a option takes an optional argument.

Herein lies the problem:

```
  -a <file> [...] --      attach file(s) to the message
                the list of files must be terminated with the "--" sequence
```

So it's neither optional, nor even a single word by necessity.
