This is just an idea...

Maybe, to show the potencial of PB we could port Yet Another Mailer for Windows.

YAM is a freeware email program for the amiga and is the farmost best Emailer ever writen for any OS.

Yam source code is available at source forge and at YAM homepage.

What do you think???

I agree for the best mailer for any OS. That's my current mailer BTW.. But it's written and C with the MUI toolkit. Good luck

I don't think that would be a problem....

What we will be porting is the way it works, and it's nice features, not the GUI for obvious reasons...

If someone did that it would be great. However, if you are only going to "port" the features then it would probably be a waste of time. Pegasus Mail (and I'm sure others would) lets me do everything I could do in YAM, except for the ARexx scripting.
