Short: GUI EMail package, v1.5 (bugfix release)
Author: Simon Brown <simes@amdev.demon.co.uk>
Uploader: Simon Brown <simes@amdev.demon.co.uk>
Type: comm/mail
ADMail - another fine product from Amazing Developments
-------------------------------------------------------
WHAT IT DOES
Pretty much what you'd expect - you can read your mail, you can send mail,
you can add a random signature to your mail, you can sort your mailbox (if
you want), and so on. It's dead good.
WHY IT'S GREAT
Features:
Sortable mailboxes.
Use any number of mailboxes.
Use any text editor at all (but not to read messages with)
Built-in pager (for reading messages with)
MIME support (displays quoted-printable and standard messages in pager,
uses "metamail" for others)
Can be "dropped in" to any setup which uses UUCP-compatible mailboxes
(just about anything) - requires no specific Net software.
Lovely graphical interface, with lots of shortcuts for keyboard freaks.
Fully configurable button bank.
Can use default, named, or own public screen.
Responsive and friendly author.
HOW TO USE IT
It's really configurable, so you just put it somewhere you can run it from
and set up the config file the way you want. Full instructions are in the
doc file. It comes with an Installer script now, too.
You will, of course, require a mailbox file.
This is a bugfix release, as the first 1.5 release had a nasty bug in it
which could double the size of the .sent and .received files. A number of
other things have been done to it, see History for full details.
OTHER STUFF
ADMail is shareware - for a mere ten pounds, a copy of the splendiferous
ADMaN will be yours. It's exactly like ADMail, only more so.
Feel free to distribute this, but do NOT make money from the distribution.
Or I won't be your friend any more.
The only commercial distribution sanctioned is the Aminet CD and the CDs
produced by Fred Fish.
Simes.
