EMailRobot is a simple object-oriented framework for developing email auto-responders.
It performs actions based on parameters extracted from received email bodies and generates answer emails.
Enhancements:
- Minor fixes were made and documentation and installation notes were added.

Email sends email to remote SMTP servers via the command line, which makes it useful in cron jobs. It will send to any RFC standard remote ESMTP server, and will allow you to encrypt, sign, and design your message on the fly.
It has the capability to use signature files with dynamic options, address book functionality, and users can also attach pictures, binary files, documents, or whatever they want. It is completely compatible with GNUPG for encryption and signing, and is easy to configure and use.
Enhancements:
- A bug where an assert caused an abort when encrypting any message with GnuPG under Cygwin has been fixed.
- Compile time problems where the compiler would complain about SIG* being undeclared have been fixed.
- There is some minor source code cleanup.

As you probably know, Yahoo Mail does not provide free POP access to its users any more. You can still use your YM account for free, but you have to use a Yahoo Mail web site to access your account.
This is not very convenient as you always have to be online, you cannot use your favourite e-mail client to read your messages, and so on. You can easily immagine the disadvantages of having to manage all your corespondence via web.
When Yahoo disabled its free POP access, the first thing that came to my mind was to change my e-mail account. But then I realized, there are far too many people used to my current Yahoo Mail address, that I am used to my YM address very much too and I thought - if Yahoo closes a free service, the other services will follow sooner or later. So changing an e-mail service/account wasnt really solution.
That is when I have decided to write YoSucker as a simple portable perl application, that would simulate a user actions to retrieve my mail to my local inbox. Yahoo Mail Sucker simply connects to the Yahoo Mail web site, parses the HTML code and fetches new messages.
With time I have added lots of other features and functionality (like support for multiple accounts, support for procmail, support for local Yahoo Mail sites, for proxy connection and much more) but the basic idea still stay the same...
Main features:
- secure SSL login
- support for multiple accounts
- encrypted passwords for enhanced security
- transaction safe writes
- support for various folders (including BULK mail)
- support for multiuser environment
- support for multiple mailboxes in one config file
- support for procmail (output to a pipe)
- support for localized Yahoo Mail sites
- support for proxy
- support for basic proxy authorization
- support of command line parameters
- powerful digest feature for listing mailbox content
- handles virtually unlimited number of messages
- LeaveOnServer, EmptyTrash and OnlyNew features
- restore message unread flag feature
- powerful CLEAN option
- quota storage warning system
- session Respawn feature
Enhancements:
- This things been around too long be be a prototype any longer.
- Filtered the annoying "Yahoo! Domain Keys" message in From header

Blue Frog allows you to actively demand spammers to stop sending you spam. Blue Frog automatically and securely posts complaints and opt-out requests at spam sites asking spammers to remove Blue Community members from their mailing lists.
The Do Not Intrude Registry creates an incentive for spammers to stop sending unsolicited e-mail to members of the Blue Community.
Consumers and businesses may register their e-mail addresses or their entire e-mail domains, and receive less spam simply because spammers would remove them from their mailing lists.
Consumers and businesses alike can join the service, free of charge, by becoming active members of the Blue community. As an active member of the community, you download the Blue Frog client and actively complain and request to opt-out of spam. The Do Not Intrude Registry empowers you to exercise your right to opt out of spam safely and automatically.
Businesses may also subscribe with the Do Not Intrude Registry without being active members of the community. This paid subscription service allows you to register your e-mail domain in the Registry and receive less spam without installing software in your network.
The Blue Frog is a simple and straightforward solution to spam:
1. Users join the Blue Community
Blue Community members add their e-mail addresses or e-mail domains to the Registry. Active members install Blue Frog on their machines.
2. Spammers use mailing lists
Spammers are required to stop sending spam to all Blue Community members. Non-complying spammers maintain mailing lists that may contain addresses of Blue Community members.
3. Members receive spam
When a spammer sends bulk e-mail using his lists, some Blue Community members may receive this spam message to their mailboxes.
4. Members report their spam
Our experts identify the merchants using spam to advertise their sites and prepare scripts instructing Blue Frog how to post complaints. Additionally, Reports are sent to government agencies and ISPs asking them to take action against these sites.
5. Members complain about spam
Blue Frog clients, installed on active Community Members machines, automatically post complaints at spam sites by filling forms they contain. Posting complaints is safe and does not expose your identity.
6. Merchants process complaints
A single opt-out complaint is posted per each spam message received. Merchants process complaints posted by active community Members rather than process potential customers purchase orders.
7. Spammers comply with the Registry
Spammers and merchants choose to stop sending spam to the all Blue community members. It allows them to avoid receiving complaints and to stop sending spam to people who will never buy their products.
8. Members stop receiving spam
Blue Community members will no longer receive spam simply because spammers will stop sending it to them!
Enhancements:
- Linux compilation fixes
- Documentation changes

- Full MIME-type poisoning support will be available shortly.
- This release was accelerated for security reasons.

Email Files Thunderbird is a very simple service menu script, to email one or more files with Thunderbird to any address or to a given address, which i assume is used as a "backup" space.

The subject is automatically updated according to the attached files and, in case you choose to send to your specific email address, details about sending date, user and host are automatically added in the body.

There are other similar service menus around, but i wanted a script that allows to attach more than one file at one time and that automatically updates the subject line.

USAGE: pretty straightforward.. Just make the two .sh files executable (if necessary) and place them in a directory of your path, for example /home/YOUR_USERNAME/bin. Place the service menu file EmailWithThunderbird.desktop in /home/YOUR_USERNAME/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus

IMPORTANT: In file EmailWithThunderbirdToMyAddress.sh, you need to specify your email address in to=.... (that is, where i wrote: YOUR_EMAIL_ADDRESS@DOMAIN.NAME)

This project was tested on OpenSuSE 10.2, KDE 3.5.6

Attach to Email Service Menu is a service menu for Konqueror that works in conjunction with a python script to allow the user to select multiple files and add them as attachments to an email using whatever mail client is configured. If a directory is selected, then its contents will be attached to the email recursively.
Installation:
0) tar -jxf attach-to-email-servicemenu.tar.bz2
1) cd attach-to-email-servicemenu
2) ./install.sh --remove-old
#Get rid of previous installations.
3) ./install.sh [--global-install|--local-install]
#Depending on whether you want system-wide or not.
The Readme file included explains how to set this up for different email clients.
Enhancements:
- New Italian translation by Giurerro.
