[chandler-users] Chandler as email client?

[Sheila Mooney]

Bjorn,

Building out a full-fledged email client is not in the 1.0 plan which  
is why you don't see any information on the website. As I responded to  
Ian, continuing to build out email functionality (as well as other  
features) is one of our goals for cultivating a healthy developer  
community.

Cheers,
Sheila
