Using Tinymail for exposing a folder through DBUS



Hello,

I am looking to export emails listed in a certain folder (e.g. a TODO
folder) through DBUS, so a program I am developing can use it. 

I was also wondering if Tinymail can use existing Evolution accounts?

It seems someone has already had the idea of using Tinymail to expose a
DBUS service:

Tinymail can be used to develop a service that exports messages and
functionality to access a local store. Another possibility (that looks
like this, but certainly isn't the same) would be to run a small IMAP
server locally and have tinymail libraries handle access with that local
store individually.

...

Developing such a service in Python using D-BUS is going to be something
that will take one experienced Python+D-BUS developer a day or two.
Tinymail's Python bindings cover the API 100%.

...
I have such an experimental service, in Python, running. Mine is,
however, just a little 50-lines experiment to proof myself the concept.

Does anyone know who edited this (and has the source code for this
example DBUS service)?

Maybe the file python-demo/tinymail-python-test.py could help me out
here as well.

Any pointers are greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
