Description-en: c-client support programs
IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) is a method of accessing
electronic messages kept on a (possibly shared) mail server.
.
The UW (University of Washington) IMAP toolkit provides the c-client
mail-handling library supporting various network transport methods,
file system storage formats, and authentication and authorization
methods.
.
This package contains helper tools for the libc-client library:
- mailutil: utility program which helps manage email mailboxes (both
local and IMAP/POP3/NNTP);
- dmail: MDA (Mail Delivery Agent) for use with procmail;
- tmail: MDA for use with the system mailer (such as Sendmail or Postfix).
