AmigaOS 4: Sylpheed 3.7.0 for AmiCygnix released
Edgar Schwan wrote: Version 3.7.0 of the email client Sylpheed is available for AmiCygnix (snapshot). It is based on GTK+ GUI Toolkit. The design and
user interface is similar to many well-known email programs from the Windows
world, such as Outlook Express.
Why another mailer? Sylpheed has a very good support of the IMAP4 protocol,
which is currently only available with a few Amiga mailers. But Sylpheed
also has other interesting features.
New in this release:
- Update to the latest stable version of Sylpheed. The program was ported from scratch and some bugs were fixed that way.
- Working remote control of Sylpheed. Sylpheed can only be started once, when started again, the options are passed to the running program.
- Update to SQLite 3.9.3 in "bogofilter 1.2.5".
Supported protocols:
- POP3 / APOP
- IMAP4rev1
- SMTP / SMTP AUTH
- NNTP (News)
- SSL / TLSv1 (POP3, SMTP, IMAP4rev1, NNTP)
Features:
- multiple accounts
- thread display
- newsreader
- printing
- address book
- templates
- external editor (e.g. Vim, which has spell checking)
- powerful filtering (POP3, IMAP4, local spool)
- powerful search (query search, quick search, search folder)
- customization of toolbar
- mark / color label
- and much more
