IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) is a method of accessing electronic messages kept on a (possibly shared) mail server.

The UW (University of Washington) IMAP toolkit provides the c-client mail-handling library supporting various network transport methods, file system storage formats, and authentication and authorization methods.

This package contains helper tools for the libc-client library: - mailutil: utility program which helps manage email mailboxes (both local and IMAP/POP3/NNTP); - dmail: MDA (Mail Delivery Agent) for use with procmail; - tmail: MDA for use with the system mailer (such as Sendmail or Postfix).
