  • NoCarrierMail source

    In the meantime where did you get the source for NoCarrierMail? I
    cannot seem to find it anywhere but did find MultiMail source. Even if
    I don't use it given the lack of a suitable offline 'door' it is always nice to know what is what out there in cyberspace.

    That's where I got the source - MultiMail. I started with a copy of the MultiMail repo at https://github.com/wmcbrine/MultiMail

    As stated near the top of the repo:

    https://github.com/andy5995/NoCarrierMail#nocarriermail

    NoCarrierMail is a fork of MultiMail, maintained by andy5995. MultiMail was >written by Kolossvary Tamas and Toth Istvan and maintained for many years by >William McBrine; see Credits. This fork adds a Meson build, a unit-test suite,

    and a number of fixes and features on top of the 0.52 base.

    Though now as I re-read, I see that first sentence is a bit ambiguous and I need to change that.

    Clear as mud?

    Hej Andy!

    Clear as mud?

    Ja, alles is duidelijk

    Thanks for the links. Maybe I can convince Paul to git onboard ... errrr ... maybe he already is? You ought to know. ;-)

    Het leven is goed,

    Only one problem; there is nothing to connect with. Nice interface though.
