Yes, I think a lot of what you see on the android is Java. Someone gave me another option but it was just as alien to me.

A couple problems I see with MultiMail on the android is Zip and Unzip. Maybe that is already there, I'm not sure. We'd also need a way to down/upload mail packets and replies.

I was reading in another area a couple people are running BBSs on their phones. If those BBSs are capable of creating QWK packets they might be looking for an OLR to go with it.. :)
