AmiMAIL
=======
AmiMAIL is a native IMAP/SMTP mail client for AmigaOS 3.2+ using the
ReAction GUI and AmiSSL. It is intended for standard mail providers that
offer IMAP and SMTP access.
Messages remain on the mail server and are accessed directly through IMAP.
It does not maintain a local offline mail database.
AmiMAIL is for Amiga OS 3.2 and later, Users have also successfully tested
AmiMAIL under AmigaOS 4. While AmigaOS 3.5 and 3.9 have higher version
numbers, they are older than AmigaOS 3.2, so compatibility cannot be
guaranteed.
AmiMAIL was carefully programmed in C and utilized AI in various areas for
more efficient implementation. The basic design concept was drafted in
Photoshop, while the logic and relationships were sketched out on paper using
traditional methods. MSYS/AmigaGCC was used to build the binary, and it was
tested on numerous devices (including emulators).
If AI-assisted code gives you sleepless nights, makes you fear a
Skynet-powered Workbench, or you simply do not want AI anywhere near your
mailbox, please do not use this application.
Your Amiga will not take it personally.
