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...

Greetings!
