Sup 0.0.1 Released -- rubies for emails

Ruby
1

Do you use rubies to read your emails? Well, sup version 0.0.1 has
been released!

http://sup.rubyforge.org

Sup is an attempt to take the UI innovations of web-based email
readers (ok, really just GMail) and to combine them with the
traditional wholesome goodness of a console-based email client.

Sup is designed to work with massive amounts of email, potentially
spread out across different mbox files, IMAP folders, and GMail
accounts, and to pull them all together into a single interface.

The goal of Sup is to become the email client of choice for nerds
everywhere.

Sup is made possible thanks to Dave Balmain’s ferret and Matt
Armstrong’s rmail.

Changes:

== 0.0.1 / 2006-11-28

  • Initial release. Unix-centrism, support for mbox only, no i18n.
    Untested on anything other than 1.8.5. Other than that, works great!

Looks cool, though I will probably wait a few versions since I’m on
Windows
and use GMail primarily. I like the multi-buffers approach.

I am ((so)) into this. Here’s a patch for IMAP support (SSL as well).

Just do

sup-import imaps://user:pass@host/mailbox

You can only do one mailbox for now.
