Seeking a email client

Published on January 20, 2017.

In 2009, one of my friends introduced me to Vim and its power to edit text files. After a few months I was so happy using Vim that I couldn’t write my emails on the poor web email client input box so the same friend that introduced me to Vim told me about Mutt.

I copied some dotfiles from the web, edited them and after a few hours (maybe days) I could check and reply my emails using Mutt and Vim. If life was a fairy tail it will end here!

O BBDB é uma agenda de contatos e o Org Mode é um gerenciador de tarefas. Ambos funcionam no Emacs e nesse post vou mostrar como fazer o BBDB e o Org Mode conversarem para que o aniverário dos seus contatos apareçam na sua agenda.

Configurando o BBDB

Para abrir o BBDB você pode utilizar M-x bbdb e obterá a lista de seus contatos no buffer.
