Postal is a swift framework providing simple access to common email providers.

let postal = Postal(configuration: .icloud(login: "[email protected]", password: "mypassword"))
postal.connect { result in
    switch result {
    case .success:
        print("success")
    case .failure(let error):
        print("error: \(error)")
    }
}

let filter = .subject(value: "Foobar") && .from(value: "[email protected]")
postal.search("INBOX", filter: filter) { result in
    switch result {
    case .success(let indexes):
        print("success: \(indexes)")
    case .failure(let error):
        print("error: \(error)")
    }
}

let indexset = NSIndexSet(index: 42)
postal.fetchMessages("INBOX", uids: indexset, flags: [ .headers ], onMessage: { email in
    print("new email received: \(email)")
}, onComplete: error in
    if error = error {
        print("an error occured: \(error)")
    }
}

postal.logger = { log in
    print(log)
}

Postal does not address the same goal as MailCore. You can take a look at our thoughts in the TechnicalNotes document.

Email protocol is standardized. However providers implementations often provides extension or variations of these standards. We tried to build a document to synthesize working around these variations here: ProviderQuirks.

Postal has been a great effort and we could really use your help on many areas:

• Finding and reporting bugs.
• New feature suggestions.
• Answering questions on issues.
• Documentation improvements.
• Reviewing pull requests.
• Fixing bugs/new features.
• Improving tests.
• Contribute to elaborate the Roadmap.

If any of that sounds cool to you, please send a pull request!
