There is a branch in telepathy where email support is somewhat worked on though it's kinda abandoned atm. Yes telepathy is meant for real time communication and hence in real time u will get notifications for your emails. ie the capabilities will be limited. this is NOT a replacement for your email client.
The capabilities might be something like how pidgin gives mail notifications. maybe something like that we can do in telepathy with notify-osd and mi integration so that we support many more protocols. The way this works is that for new mails the google/yahoo server sends the new email msg to us, just like it sends it to it's own messenger on windows On Sat, Oct 17, 2009 at 1:47 AM, Juha Siltala <j...@siltala.net> wrote: > On Fri, 2009-10-16 at 16:09 -0400, Alex Launi wrote: > > Is there any info on telepathy email stuff?
