Free imap4 software for linux

Twisted Mail project provides client and server implementations of SMTP, POP3, and IMAP4.
These differentiate themselves from the Python standard library implementations both by presenting a much higher-level, easy-to-use interface and in their server components, which allow the implementation of custom servers for each protocol without dealing with protocol-level issues.
Twisted Mail includes a simple demonstration email server which accepts messages over SMTP, stores them in a Maildir arrangement, and can serve them to clients over POP3.
Enhancements:
- The IMAP4 client now properly quotes usernames and passwords when necessary.
- It also handles unsolicited FLAGS responses.
- The IMAP4 server can now parse multiple literals in a single command and to FETCH requests with multiple BODY parts.
- A bug where Deferreds returned from IMAP4 client methods would not receive connection lost notification has been fixed.
- Startup time on OS X has been improved.
- The SMTP server has been sped up.
- The POP3 mailbox API has been expanded to allow Deferreds to be returned in some cases.

GMail::IMAPD is an IMAP4 gateway to Googles webmail service.

SYNOPSIS

# Start an IMAP-to-Gmail daemon on port 1143

use GMail::IMAPD;

my $daemon=GMail::IMAPD->new(LocalPort=>1143,
LogFile=>gmail_imapd.log,
Debug=>1);
$daemon->run();

# Or if you prefer to use your own server socket,
# you can do something like:

my $i2g=GMail::IMAPD->new(LogFile=>imapd.log);

for(;;){
my $s=someserver();
$i2g->procimap($s);
}

This module allows users to access their Gmail account with an IMAP client by running a server which accepts IMAP connections.

Deletemail is a non-interactive tool for removing mail from one or more IMAP4 mailboxes. It removes mail older than a configurable number of days, and by default does not remove mail that is not marked as seen on the server.
By default, mail which is not marked as seen on the server will not be deleted. If, for example, fetchmail is used for receiving mail from an IMAP server, deletemail might be useful, since fetchmail deletes mail either immediately or not at all.
Thus, you could use fetchmails keep option (so that fetchmail never deletes anything) and let deletemail handle the removal of mail. Currently, the IMAP4 and IMAP4rev1 protocols are supported, optionally using SSL/TLS for secure IMAP connections.
Enhancements:
- The handling of unexpected IMAP server behavior and connection problems was improved, and a few minor bugs have been fixed.

nugu is a biff-like utility which scans either an IMAP4 or POP3 mail server account and relays an abbreviated copy of the unread email to the users cell phone.
The user can constrain which messages get relayed by defining a query in a configuration file. nugu is meant to be run as a cron job.
Enhancements:
- Support for --notruncate and --abbreviate command line options was added.
- --notruncate refrains from truncating a message to the 160 character SMS limit.
- --abbreviate attempts to provide "text-readable" compression by simply ommitting vowels in words that are longer than 4 characters.

MAILBOX wmnotify is a "DockApp" application, running under WindowMaker, to periodically check a POP3 or IMAP4 email account for new messages. It also supports SSL encryption.

When new messages are detected, the mailbox image is animated to give a visual indication that new mail has arrived. Additionnally, if desired, a sound can be produced from a WAV or AU audio file, or from the console bell.

For simplicity reasons, wmnotify doesnt support multiple POP3 accounts. But by starting a new instance of wmnotify and specifying an alternate configuration file on the command line, you can effectively check multiple POP3 accounts.

KBiff is a "biff" or new mail notification utility. It is highly configurable but very easy to use and setup. It tries to combine the best of the features of most of the "other" biff programs out there.
KBiff supports all major mailbox formats: mbox (Berkely style), maildir, mh, POP3, IMAP4, and NNTP. As of 3.7, it also supports POP3 and IMAP4 with SSL. As of 3.8, it supports CRAM-MD5 and APOP authentication.
KBiff is also part of the KDE project. Among other things, this means that it has support for session managment (it "remembers" the last state it was in before you logged off) and can be docked into the panel.
Main features:
- Pure GUI configuration. No more command line parameters to remember (well, one optional one to make things easier for some people) or strange config files. All settings for KBiff can be done from one setup dialog.
- Session Management. KBiff starts up with the same configuration you left it with.
- Panel Docking. KBiff can be docked into the panel very easily. Handy when you are monitoring several mailboxes and dont have room anywhere else.
- Animated GIFs. You can use animated GIFs as your icons.
- Sounds. KBiff has an option to play .wav files when new mail arrives.
- POP3, IMAP4, NNTP, Maildir, MBOX, MH. KBiff supports all major mailbox formats!
- Multiple Mailbox. KBiff can monitor several mailboxes with one instance.
- Others. KBiff has scads of other options.
Enhancements:
- pdated automake admin dir to compile with latest SuSE
- Updated documentation slightly
