hackermail

==========

hackermail is a mails management tool for hackers who collaborate using mailing

lists.  It requires no complicated setup but just `git`.  Using it, you can

fetch mailing list archives, read mails in those, and post replies or new

mails.

For now, hackermail supports

[public-inbox](https://public-inbox.org/design_notes.html) managed mailing list

archives and manually exported mbox file contents.  Linux Kernel Mailing Lists

[(LKML)](https://kernel.org/lore.html) are good examples of the public-inbox

managed mailing list archives.
