Excellent! 
When will this get pushed to HaikuDepot?
I’ve been waiting for a new IMAP client for a while.
Mail works great for POP3 accounts, but its performance on IMAP is less than stellar, and the metaphor that it’s trying to show (emails as files, in directories that represent folders) isn’t really applicable to IMAP.
Once the recipe is added to the haikuports repo, you either have to wait for a Haiku dev to manually build and upload it, if you use the (at the moment default)
http://packages.haiku-os.org/haikuports/master/repo/x86_gcc2/current
If you use the (at the moment still) experimental repo
http://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haikuports/master/repository/x86_gcc2/current/
it’ll appear there automatically after the buildbots sucessfully created the HPKG from the recipe.
Trojita was rebuilt last week, and unfortunately I was having problems sending emails.
However, I discovered that if I built it using the source from KDE/Github
(GitHub - KDE/trojita: Fast, lightweight and standard-compliant IMAP e-mail client) sending emails worked fine.
srcGitRev in the recipe is over 4 years old, some commits have been done since then, so updating to latest commit could fix some things? (most of the commits are sync commits, but there are other related to deprecated warnings etc that could help out)
Trojita isn’t been active for a long time KDE switched mail app to kmail or merkuro.
