i know there have been a couple of fuse attempts at imap
integration -- i don't recall how far they've gotten. if it
weren't for possibly already having been done, i'd think that
would be an almost ideal summer-of-code project, since it would
be a somewhat stand-alone project, and something with

Thanks for the many responses and active discussion.
I agree that MIME support should be improved. For people in
non-English speaking Countries, like me, bad MIME handling is a big
argument against nmh. But also the point of how to handle attachments
in replies should be worked on.

Doesn't it delegate mail transfer to an MTA?
You may need it to talk to a remote MTA that insists on doing TLS. And
there's valid use cases for it.

Have we not beaten this subject into the ground yet?
Here's where we differ. For me, it's easier to configure sendmail, so that
the nmh configuration remains the same in any network environment.
Alright ... so, my answer to this is: So what?
Yes, it's easier for _you_. Great. But that doesn't
So, to keep everyone in the loop ... I have asked the NetBSD board if
they are willing to act as a mentoring organization for nmh. I will
keep everyone posted as to their response.

Lyndon said that nmh does not need someone like me to work on it.
Well, he's just ONE guy.
Ya, but I'll still take you all on!!! :-)

Is a single threaded IMAP *CLIENT* really as complex as the server side?
No. It's about ten times *more* complex than the server side.
Most so-called IMAP clients are really POP clients that know how to switch
mailboxes.

It's not necessary to write an entire IMAP implementation from scratch,
there are a few possible codebases to work with.
