Jakob, Do you have a URL and/or API documentation that we could take a look at? What is the ETA for the first release?

Doesn't c-client > provide most of this functionallity? Yes, but c-client is horribly slow, leaves mailboxes with annoying "DO NOT DELETE THIS MESSAGE -- FOLDER INTERNAL DATA" messages, and is under the circumspect UW license... But, there is hope. I have been working (with a couple of others) on the forthcoming GNU mailutils package, which includes, among other things, a library (may become libraries) that provide better than c-client funcionality under LGPL. I hadn't mentioned it before because I didn't want it to sound like a conflict of interests, but in this case the API is still under development and can still be adaptable to emerging standards such as this. Comments are, of course, welcome. -- Jakob 'sparky' Kaivo - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://jakob.kaivo.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
