Hi All,

There is now a CMakeLists.txt file in the project for easy building the fmail and ftools modules. So you don't need the code::blocks ide anymore, if you want to build these modules yourself.

So far I've tested this on 2 linux systems:

My older development system with:
  cmake 3.3.2
  gcc 4.8.5

And a newer linux with:
  cmake 3.20.4
  gcc 7.5.0

It might also work on other systems, even windows, but I don't know yet.
If you want to have a go at compiling, you will need a system with the necessary development tools, and then on linux you basically have to execute these commands:

  git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/fmail/code fmail-code
  cd fmail-code
  cmake .
  cmake --build .

I you have a go at it. Please let me know the result.


Bye, Wilfred.
