Vmail is a Vim interface to Gmail.
Vmail uses Vim autocompletion to help you auto-complete email addresses. A text-only-mode web browser (w3m, elinks, or lynx) should be available to view HTML mail parts in Vmail.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Multiple mailboxes.
- Rudimentary support for attachments.
- Generate a message list by performing an IMAP search on the current mailbox.
- Uses TLS (Transport Layer Security) to perform IMAP and SMTP authentication. So Vmail transmits your password securely over the network.
