There are many resources, but not this one AFAICS. The reason I am asking is that, for the not near future, I laid my eyes on a couple of SMTP C language libraries and on GNU mailutils (which already has some Guile binding). I would like to have a C language library for SMTP that I can use in Guile and non-Guile code and that does not duplicate code that I already have in the GEE distribution (like base64 codec and SSL usage). None of the libraries that I have seen so far has the model that I like, some is not well documented and some is not well implemented (no hooks for memory allocation and errors in protocol implementation). So work is needed and I do not want to duplicate efforts already done by others. I have to say that I was not aware of how much work has been put into GNU mailutils, and I am impressed; but they left behind the documentation of the C libraries... Hey! I see that on July they released version 1.0 (after two years), I will look into it... -- Marco Maggi "They say jump!, you say how high?"
