I'd sum up this thread:1. Vmail: This seems to be the kind of thing I look for. But it depends on sqlite3, ruby, lynx and maybe some other packages so get: ERROR: Error installing vmail: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension. 2. Vim as an external editor for email client X (including mutt and "Text Editor Anywhere"): This is exactly the opposite of what I'd like to achieve. I'd like to have _real_ vim plugin for emailing so I can take advantage of some other plugins, omni completion, scripting, folding... all that stuff where vim excels. You may oppose: "So you want vim to be like that Operating System lacking a decent editor?". Yes, sort of. I think there's a point having everything under one roof: The synergy effect. Thanks for your replies Bost
Consider The Mail Suite (TMS): http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1052
I used to use this for many years when I was on 32-bit Microsoft Windows. Since I moved to 64 bit, I have not been able to find or to build Vim with support for 64 bit perl, and so am not sure what tweaks will need to be done to make it work under 64 bit Microsoft Windows and 64 bit perl. Also, when I had access to a linux system, I had verified that TMS works there; no idea what tweaks will need to be done to make TMS work under newer linux releases.
