Re: Which IMAP client does one use at the end of 2012

Aha! It's a trick question! The answer is "none" because the world is going to end on the 21st of December! :-)

Until then though, use Mail::Box::IMAP4 because it integrates with the rest of the very awesome Mail::Box suite.

perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'

No, then we start using `Mail::PonyExpress` and `Mail::SemaphoreFires`.	[reply]

Hmmm... given the amount of outstanding bugs and the explicit "this is a work in progress" statement, I don't feel too comfortable with it ;( Will keep looking Thanks though!	[reply]

According to rt.cpan.org, it has 3 outstanding bugs. I don't think that's a lot for such an ambitious project. By contrast, Moose has 50 open bugs and is widely considered a useful and stable piece of software. There is a word for software which is not "work in progress". That word is "abandonware". `perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'`	[reply]
