Mahogany is an OpenSource(TM) cross-platform mail and news client. It
is available for X11/Unix and MS Windows platforms, supporting a wide
range of protocols and standards, including POP3, IMAP and full MIME
support. Thanks to its built-in Python interpreter it can be extended
far beyond its original functionality. Mahogany's wealth of features
and ease of use make it one of the most powerful clients available,
providing a consistent and intuitive interface across all supported
platforms. Mahogany is being developed using the free wxWindows
application framework, building on the gtk toolkit on Unix.


License:

This is the license under which all original source code developed for
Mahogany is licensed and distributed. It is not our intend to restrict
other developers in re-using our code and if you feel that you want to
do something with the Mahogany source that this license may not
permit, simply get in touch with us.

 Preamble

 The intent of this document is to state the conditions under which
 this software package may be copied, such that the Copyright Holder
 maintains some semblance of artistic control over the development of
 the package, while giving the users of the package the right to use
 and distribute the Package in a more-or-less customary fashion, plus
 the right to make reasonable modifications.

 This license is based on Perl's `Artistic License' and has been
 adapted to better suit Mahogany. It aims to confirm with the
 Open-Source specification.

 Definitions


 `Package' refers to the collection of files distributed by the
 Copyright Holder, and derivatives of that collection of files created
 through textual modification.

 `Standard Version' refers to such a Package if it has not been
 modified, or has been modified in accordance with the wishes of the
 Copyright Holder as specified below.

 `Copyright Holder' is whoever is named in the copyright or copyrights
 for the package. `You' is you, if you're thinking about copying or
 distributing this Package.

 `Reasonable copying fee' is whatever you can justify on the basis of
 media cost, duplication charges, time of people involved, and so on.
 (You will not be required to justify it to the Copyright Holder, but
 only to the computing community at large as a market that must bear
 the fee.)

 `Freely Available' means that no fee is charged for the item itself,
 though there may be fees involved in handling the item. It also means
 that recipients of the item may redistribute it under the same
 conditions they received it.

 Terms and Conditions of Use


 1.You may make and give away verbatim copies of the source form of
 the Standard Version of this Package without restriction, provided
 that you duplicate all of the original copyright notices and
 associated disclaimers and only distribute the complete package as a
 whole.

 2.You may apply bug fixes, portability fixes and other modifications
 derived from the Public Domain or from the Copyright Holder. A
 Package modified in such a way shall still be considered the Standard
 Version.

 3.You may otherwise modify your copy of this Package in any way,
 provided that you insert a prominent notice in each changed file
 stating how and when you changed that file, and provided that you do
 at least ONE of the following:
 
   a.place your modifications in the Public Domain or otherwise make
   them Freely Available, such as by posting said modifications to
   Usenet or an equivalent medium, or placing the modifications on a
   major archive site such as sunsite.unc.edu, or by allowing the
   Copyright Holder to include your modifications in the Standard
   Version of the Package, and rename any non-standard executables so
   the names do not conflict with standard executables, which must
   also be provided, and provide a separate manual page for each
   non-standard executable that clearly documents how it differs from
   the Standard Version. You must not make the modified version depend
   on any other software or libary if that software or libary is not
   Freely Available or if it is covered under a license more
   restrictive than this.

   b.use the modified Package only within your corporation or
   organization.

   c.make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.

 4.You may distribute the programs of this Package in object code or
 executable form, provided that you do at least ONE of the following:

   a.distribute a Standard Version of the executables and library
   files, together with instructions (in the manual page or
   equivalent) on where to get the Standard Version.

   b.accompany the distribution with the machine-readable source of
   the Package with your modifications, including the complete
   machine-readable source of the unmodified Standard Version. You
   must not make the modified version depend on any other software or
   libary if that software or libary is not Freely Available or if it
   is covered under a license more restrictive than this.

   c.give non-standard executables non-standard names, and clearly
   document the differences in manual pages (or equivalent), together
   with instructions on where to get the Standard Version.

   d.make other distribution arrangements with the Copyright Holder.  

 5.You may charge a reasonable copying fee for any distribution of
 this Package. You may charge any fee you choose for support of this
 Package. You may not charge a fee for this Package itself. However,
 you may distribute this Package in aggregate with other (possibly
 commercial) programs as part of a larger (possibly commercial)
 software distribution provided that you do not advertise this Package
 as a product of your own.

 6.The name of the Copyright Holder may not be used to endorse or
 promote products derived from this software without specific prior
 written permission. However, all products derived from this software
 must reproduce the original copyright notice as found in the Standard
 Version.

 7.THIS PACKAGE IS PROVIDED `AS IS' AND WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED
 WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
 MERCHANTIBILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
