Overview

Pantomime provides a set of Objective-C classes that model a mail system. Pantomime can be seen as a JavaMail 1.2 clone written in Objective-C.

Pantomime is almost entirely written in Objective-C. The C language is only used where performance is critical. Pantomime uses a little bit of ELM code.

Pantomime is used in the project GNUMail. It has been included since the release 0.7.0pre2 of GNUMail.app.
