I went thru this very thing... :( Worldpilot is a pile of doo-doo - forget it. ZopeGUD seems to be suffering from bloat - a big design with not the resources. It could be simplified and finished, that hasn't happened. But... it does WORK. You need to get it from the CVS version, that's your only hope. Not too hard... but you need to install several other products for it to work correctly... unfortunately they aren't documented, you have to look at the errors in your log and/or the sources to figure it out. One of them is a spell checker product from somewhere... and ZopeGUD has many products inside it, including ThreadSafeCounter and 007 (dunno what that one does...) but if you install everything it does actually work! Unlike worldpilot, which is inscrutable and unsupported. The only alternative that I thought was viable was bobomail, which is python but not Zope - looked like it could be adapted... Good luck!

I intend to desing an web interface for my server IMAP/SMTP services. I use qmail-1.03, Courier IMAP on RH 7.2. Also Zope 2.4.2. Found two recommended products (even more than email interfaces, but real PIMs), a. worldpilot-release-1.1.0alpha4

b. zopegum-1.2.0-beta2 released also (in another product) as zopegud-1.0.0-preview5.

Trying to install lastest version of those products, I failed, Zope don't see them in the list of intsalled products. (exception, from the whole bundle of ZopeGUD, ThreadSafeCounter was the only avaible and working).

worldpilot, an older version, worldpilot.1.0.4 seems to work with zope-2.4.2, but after logging into IMAP server, sends me back to login screen (altought IMAP server reports me as logged in).

I read about a patch for worldpilot1.0.4 to work with Courier IMAP, but coudn't find any help on their forum.

I tried out IMAPAdapter, but either, cannot be intalled as Zope 2.4.2 product :(( Can any body help? even recommend me another product. Thanks, Dragos Lipan Piatra Craiului National Park str. Raului 27, 2223 Zarnesti, Brasov, Romania dlipan@pcrai.ro tel. 40-93-330477 =8-)

Some guys are working on a new product that would just do that. Some of them are the nice people of imeme.net... I'm sure they will answer better than me about this project. Anyway there is a mailing list at : http://lists.imeme.net/listinfo/zope-messages hth Philippe
