    email client like mutt

    Hi,

    I am looking for a python email client for the terminal... something like
    mutt; maybe, so powerfull ;-)

    Would be nice, if anybody has an idea!


    Greetings!

    What's wrong with mutt?

      Like he says it's not written in python.

      Thanks

        Yes, I see that, but that doesn't answer my question. Not every
        application in the world needs to be written in Python. (Note that I'm
        a mutt user myself.)

          Well.. I'm also curious why he wants it to be written in python, so I
          thought we could join forces.

          Incidentally I've been looking for a general-purpose application written
          in python/ncurses for some time and haven't found anything.

          Looks like no new terminal application was written in the last ten years
          or so. I guess that would rule out python..?

          Thanks

            I like mutt a lot, but at work I have to use lotus notes and
            I thought that I could use an existing python mail client to
            read and write mail 'around ' the lotus environment... that
            probably does not work anyways!?
            The second idea, which is more a working together with mutt, was to send files from 'lfm' (last file
            manager), which is completely written in python. I want to
            open mutt from lfm and automatically attach the marked files
            to the email...
