New port: mail/aerc
Aerc is an email client that runs in your terminal. It is highly
efficient and extensible, perfect for the discerning hacker.
Some of its more interesting features include:
- Editing emails in an embedded terminal tmux-style, allowing you to check on incoming emails and reference other threads while you compose your replies
- Render HTML emails with an interactive terminal web browser, highlight patches with diffs, and browse with an embedded less session
- Vim-style keybindings and ex-command system, allowing for powerful automation at a single keystroke
- First-class support for working with git & email
- Open a new tab with a terminal emulator and a shell running for easy access to nearby git repos for parallel work
- Support for multiple accounts, with support for IMAP, Maildir, SMTP, and sendmail transfer protocols
- CalDAV and CardDAV support for synchronizing contacts & calendar events
- Asynchronous IMAP support ensures the UI never gets locked up by a flaky network, as mutt often does
- Efficient network usage - aerc only downloads the information which is necessary to present the UI, making for a snappy and bandwidth-efficient experience
