Hi Quinton,
Yeh certainly. It needs some thinking about which parts
are useful to the community. There is no concept of a service for instance
since the app is based around tasks doing some stuff and then dying, a bit like
life really. 
I suppose task editing and management could be worth extracting and then templates
for the IMAP/POP3/SMTP tasks. Theres also a MySQL backend to keep tabs on emails and
attachements with an event queue and events/rules/actions processor to process 
email content, which is more application specific so harder to pass on.

Let me know what you think and I will try to budget some time to wash and brush up the 
code.
Regards,
Malcolm
