SweeterMail

===========

_It's like foster care_

### To install:

- get a reasonable linux dev environment

- install sugar-build (http://sugarlabs.org/~buildbot/docs/build.html)

- install sugar-emulator and sugar-session (package names may vary from distro to disro)

- sudo python setup.py install

- run the emulator! (sugar-emulator -F for windowed mode)

- see how lame it looks!

### Code map

* sweetmail.py - the main activity, calls a bunch of stuff

  * configure.py - parses %activityroot%/data/config.txt to get pop3 account credentials

    * accounts.py - defines the types of accounts and their subtypes. the main pop3 function is in accounts.POPStoreAccount.retreive_all. 

  * bgsrt.py - the "background send/receive thread", hoping to phase this out into only being run at startup, and at user request

  * tracker.py - this doesn't appear to do much right now, it appears it WANTS to be an error reporter type thing, letting the user know where in a given process it failed

  * utility.py - only used for check_online() right now, which is dependent on Network Manager.

  * EVERYTHING ELSE - have not played with much, as it isn't directly related to pop stuff...

### TODO:

* ~~code review~~

* ~~get this thing running~~

* ~~find the applicable libraries~~

* get reading functional - in progress

  * ~~needs mail fetching - wyatt can do this!~~

  * needs mailbox functionality - ability to select and open messages - kody and alex can do this!

  * default to opening inbox tag

  * ~~send receive button needs to call bgsrt.run()~~

  * stop downloading messages that we already have! ~~Compare against metadata.db?~~

    * get *just* Message-Id from remote mailbox?

* get sending functional

### stretch goals

1. Make pretty icons and artwork

1. SSL / TLS support

   I think this is actually pretty trivial - set the "auth_type" in config.txt to "SSL"?

1. attachment / image support

1. better error reporting besides a log file

### Super Stretch (tm)

1. openPGP
