reMail now open source, uses MailCore on the iPhone
Entry published mar 08 2010
Exciting news from reMail! reMail has been acquired by Google and reMail is now open source!
This means that MailCore for iPhone is now available as part of the remail-iphone project. MailCore code has been compatible with the iPhone, but because Apple doesn’t allow iPhone apps to link against OpenSSL or CyrusSASL, using MailCore has been non-trivial. Gabor Cselle has done the hard work for us by including OpenSSL and CyrusSASL dependencies and providing his work under the Apache license.
My hope is that this will spur new IMAP/SMTP apps now that it’s easy to use MailCore on the iPhone. In the future I’d like to make this even easier by pulling in some of reMail’s MailCore changes, but for now check out remail-iphone
