imap libraries for C++
4 projects | /r/cpp | 18 Sep 2021

I am looking for IMAP capable libraries. I found etpan/MailCore- which are more or less static. I am unsure how to incorporate them into my C++ library. Documentation mentions installing it globally, and I don't see any connan setup for that. I managed to get etpan compile using my build system, only to find out I am unhappy about MailCore (I assume I ignore this library...).
