Email viewer and sender only

[j-lee8]

Is it possible to use just the email viewer/sender for the front-end? We have our own API to deal with sending/receiving emails so just require a front-end. Apologies if this isn't the right place to post as I'm not sure where else it could be asked.

Thanks all!

Hi @JavaJamie,

Don't quite understand what you really need.

If you want to use the complete front-end part without the server you have at least 2/3 options (all of them require some work). Similar to #203.

1. Unrecommended Fork the front-end and adapt/modify the API requests so they match your protocol.
2. Recommended Develop a new microservice that consumes your protocol/API and bridges it to Isotope's API: [client]->[yourServerImpl]->[yourAPI]
3. Additionally, you can create some other service which bridges your API to an IMAP protocol (See DavMail for an IMAP to Exchange example): [client]->[server]->[yourIMAPtoYourAPIBridge]->[yourAPI]
