Some notes that may save you time:
Palmer Mail is a Qt 6 mail and calendar client written in Python. It
speaks IMAP and SMTP, and additionally supports Proton Mail through
Proton's own Bridge and Microsoft 365 via OAuth 2.0.
Two things distinguish it from the mail clients already in the archive.
Proton Mail is a first-class backend rather than a generic IMAP account:
the client understands Bridge's folder and label namespace directly,
including where Proton's semantics differ from IMAP's. And a selection
of messages can be exported to CSV or JSON, with bodies as plain text
and attachments extracted -- no shipping Linux mail client does this
without a third-party add-on.
The client enforces TLS certificate verification with no user-facing
override, blocks remote content in messages by default, and stores all
credentials in the system keyring. It contains no telemetry and makes no
network connection other than to the mail servers a user configures.
lintian reports no tags at all on the binary package, and no errors on
the source. The one source warning is newer-standards-version, an
artefact of my local lintian predating Policy 4.7.4.
This is my first package. I am not a Debian Developer or Maintainer and
I intend to maintain it myself.
The original submission lost its line breaks in transit. Resending it
readable — apologies for the noise.
Regards,
Cevin Palmer
