Django webmail package

What would you like to see? This package (mostly) fits my needs as is (minus some send/reply/fwd improvements I have planned). I'm interested to know what users would like to see out of the package.

to run locally:

• make sure requirements are installed (See below)
• $ cd /path/to/simone.git
• create local_settings.py (at some point you will at least want SECRET_KEY set)
• $ python2 manage.py syncdb --pythonpath=.. (go through the creating superuser process)
• $ python2 manage.py runserver --pythonpath=..
• Open up a browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin
• Add a new user to use
• $ python2 manage.py changepassword --pythonpath=.. newuser
• In your browser, logout
• Go to http://127.0.0.1:8000/mail
• Fill in your IMAP details
• Profit!

What works:

reading email.... that's about it for now

Requirements:

• django (1.6+)
• imapclient (pip install imapclient)
• probably python-2.7 (it's all I've tested, theoretically 2.6+ should work)

(NOTE: do not intall imaplib2)

Uses:

• jQuery
• jQueryUI (including the overcast theme)
• JsonTree (https://github.com/Erffun/JsonTree)
