<para>The <application>GMime</application> package contains a set of
|
|
utilities for parsing and creating messages using the Multipurpose
|
|
Internet Mail Extension (MIME) as defined by the applicable RFCs. See the
|
|
<ulink url="http://spruce.sourceforge.net/gmime/">GMime web site</ulink>
|
|
for the RFCs resourced. This is useful as it provides an API which adheres
|
|
to the MIME specification as closely as possible while also providing
|
|
programmers with an extremely easy to use interface to the API
|
|
functions.</para>

<para>Note: the package version listed above is considered to be in the
|
|
development branch of <application>GMime</application>. This version is
|
|
used in the BLFS book, as the only package that requires it,
|
|
<application>Balsa</application>, requires a version equal to or greater
|
|
than 2.1.9. Not to worry though, as the maintainer has this to say about
|
|
the versions: <quote>at this time, even though 2.1.x has not made the
|
|
final 2.2.0 release, it is considered more stable and more robust than the
|
|
2.0.x series</quote>. You can see this quote at <ulink
