Package name eMail or not?

There was some discussion [1] about an ITP I filed last year for a package called email [2], which suffered from an inappropriate license and name problems. The upstream has since released a newer version under the GPL and has indicated to me a willingness to have the package called eMail.

Re: Como posso começar?

Tenho uma pergunta: este lista é para portuguese brasileiro ou portuguese portuguese? Até agora, parece-me que é apenas do Brasil. O Debian não distingue entre estes? Um abraço, Millis

replacement in the time saved by messing around with non-free packages and getting special Debian redistribution permissions. Yeah, and then you could use a less stupid name for it too. -Miles -- Millis Miller [EMAIL PROTECTED] GnuPG Key ID: 0x7C42934F Website: http://www.faztek.org

I've already spoken to the upstream author, and he does not see mwilling to convert to a DFSG license. Probably the only thing I can do is to make it suitable for the non-free section for the time being. Can you indicate to me how the license shoudl be changed to be suitable for the non-free

What other package would you suggest that does the same functionality then insteard? I specifically was interested in this one because of the mime encoding of the signature/encryption functionality. Millis

OK, let me see if I can address all the comments I've received so far. 1. Description too long. OK, I will change it to a shorter one, once I work out how to do that with an ITP. 2. Various questions along the line of What does email do that a certain shell sequence doesn't. This from Upstream:
