Use your mail client as the UI
Brilliant little script that sets up a basic POP3 and SMTP server on localhost to give Bitmessage an email interface for example that Thunderbird can connect to. This mean the messages can be organised in a local folder structure or easily coped to your IMAP structure.
- First enable the Bitmessage API in your local keys.dat configuration file.
- Install the PyBitmessage-Daemon script into your home folder (I used git clone git://github.com/Dokument/PyBitmessage-Daemon.git for easy update) and run it with python daemon.py.
- Install the bmwrapper into your home (I used git clone again)
- Set up an account on your mail client on localhost, POP3 on 12344 and SMTP on 12345 as shown here.
