Net::Gmail::IMAP::Label(3) IMAP proxy for Google's Gmail that retrieves message labels

SYNOPSIS

gmail-imap-label [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION

This module provides a proxy that sits between an IMAP client and Gmail's IMAPS server and adds GMail labels to the X-Label header. This proxy uses the Gmail IMAP extensions <http://code.google.com/apis/gmail/imap/#x-gm-labels>.

To use this proxy, your e-mail client will need to connect to the proxy using the IMAP protocol (without SSL).

EXAMPLES

The simplest way of starting is to run the proxy on the default port of 10143:

    gmail-imap-label

An alternative port can be specified using the --port option

    gmail-imap-label --port 993

The proxy has been tested with both mutt (v1.5.21) and offlineimap (v6.3.4). Example configuration files for these are available in the "doc" directory.
