> The purpose of this mail library is to provide a portable,
efficient middleware for different kinds of mail access
(IMAPrev4, POP3, NNTP, mbox, MH, Maildir).
</P
><P
> You have two kinds of mailbox access, either using low-level
functions with a different interface for each kind of access
or using higher-level functions, using a driver to wrap the
higher-level API. The API will be the same for each kind of
mail access using the higher-level API.
