i am using a command line in windows to launch thunderbird, have subject and body and attachments already there, but it sits and waits for me to send the email

I need to have a flag that will do what I have already accomplished but send the email without user interaction and close thunderbird

It's possible have TB send in the background, but not automatically through a command line argument. Some users have recommended an app like SwithMail for this purpose, There's also the Send Later TB add-on for scheduled sending.
