The qt messaging framework, qmf, consists of a c++ library and daemon server process that can be used to build email clients, and more generally software that interacts with email and mail servers.

the messageserver application is a daemon, designed to run continuously while providing services to client applications. it provides messaging transport functionality, communicating with external servers on behalf of messaging framework client applications. new types of messaging (such as instant messages or video messages) can be handled by the server application without modification to existing client applications.

this package contains:
* the message server support library. it provides assistance in developing
gui clients that access messaging data.
* a server application supporting multiple messaging transport mechanisms.
