hello,
is there any email client with imap + smtp support available under "pharo" at the moment?
problem: due to compute power constraints, i am running "pharo" as my only application via xinit, having to constantly switch between "pharo" and console (for mutt) is becoming painful. :)
I don't think so. The email client I've seen mentioned most often is Celeste, but having a browse around it doesn't seem to support imap, and I can't find a repository that seems alive.
On squeaksource.com there is * Celeste - browsing around it seems this doesn't support IMAP * Hermes IMAP Email Client * IMAP
They all seem fairly old. Since the UI probably is where greatest changes might have occurred, I wonder with the last one would be the best to use and roll your own UI using Glamour. Email is kind of a drill-down application suited to Glamour.
btw just curious, how are you switching between consoles? Using CTRL+ALT+F(1-6) ?
first attempt was indeed to use that (ctrl + alt + fn1 ~ fn6) approach, but after a few switches my system just hung. now, i have disciplined myself to first work through every email, then work with pharo as much as i can, take notes about stuff i get stuck at, exit pharo (and the x session), and head over to mutt. :( ~mayuresh
