It is a GUI counterpart to neomutt for +the parts of mail handling that are easier with a mouse and a real HTML +renderer. + +It does no network protocol work at all: there is no POP, IMAP or SMTP, +and no sync implementation. Mail arrives in your Maildir by whatever you +already use (mbsync, offlineimap, fetchmail) and is indexed by +'notmuch new'. Fetching is delegated to a command you configure, so it +joins the lock that already serializes your script against cron rather +than running a second mbsync over the same Maildir. Sending is not +implemented. + +You need a working notmuch database before qtmaildir is useful; it does +not create or configure one. The Maildir path is deliberately not +configurable, since notmuch already stores it as database.path. + +Qt6 (including WebEngine), gmime and cmake are part of Slackware, so +notmuch is the only dependency that is not. + +The interface follows your locale where a translation exists, and an +Italian one ships. Set 'language' under [general] to override it. + +Configuration lives at ~/.config/qtmaildir/qtmaildir.conf and is +documented in /usr/doc/qtmaildir-$VERSION/README.md. + +This package is built with the test suite disabled +(-DQTMAILDIR_BUILD_TESTS=OFF), which skips the Qt6::Test dependency and +builds nothing that would ship. |
