Manitou-Mail is a 3-part database-driven email
system: a PostgreSQL database for the storage
engine, a Perl daemon that does send/receive and
customizable analysis/indexing of the mail, and a
mailer-like user interface (C++/Qt) connected to
the database. The general goal is to provide a
database-style architecture to handle email, not
just for storage but at the application level too.
Fast and shared access, fine-tuned security,
robust storage, consistent backups, auditing,
statistics, and customized add-ons are possible.

Changes:
The user interface has been ported to Qt4. Attachments handling has been improved, along with various minor bugfixes. A GPL'ed Windows version of the user interface is now available, with precompiled binaries. Debian packages for Linux are now available.
