Building latest development version

If you want to see the changes since the last release, you can check SharpWebMail's change log.

If you want to build from source the latest development version, first you need to download the source code:

You'll need a Subversion client to access the source repository.

You can read sourceforge's instructions about the subversion server and their information about accessing Subversion repositories.

Checkout the latest code from Subversion server. You have to checkout SharpWebMail module. Steps (using the command line client):

svn co https://sharpwebmail.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/sharpwebmail/trunk/SharpWebMail sharpwebmail

Once you have the source you need the latest distributions of SharpMimeTools, Log4Net, FCKEditor V2, DotNetOpenMail and OpenSmtp.

Copy the editor folder from FCKeditor distribution into SharpWebMail\asp.net\fcke folder. _source and filemanager subfolders aren't needed so you can delete them.

Windows only instructions:

Copy SharpMimeTools.dll into sharpwebmail\bin\net folder (if it doesn't exist create it)

Copy log4net.dll into sharpwebmail\bin\net

Copy FredCK.FCKeditorV2.dll into sharpwebmail\bin\net

Copy DotNetOpenMail.dll into sharpwebmail\bin\net

Then open sharpwebmail\SharpWebMail.sln combine file with SharpDevelop 2.x

Build the project.

Linux only instructions (Mono):

There is much work to be done in SharpWebMail and all sorts of contribution are welcome. The main development areas now are:

XHTML interface.

Full IMAP support.

More translations.

Provide and easy framework to extend/change functionality.

Intensively test everything.

Those are the areas where I'll focus my development cycles. If you want to help in those or other things more important for your environment, you are welcome to contribute to the project.
