== What is YAM? ==
YAM (short for '''Yet Another Mailer''') is a MIME-compliant open-source Internet email client written for AmigaOS-based computer systems. It supports POP3, SMTP, TLSv1/SSLv3 connection security, multiple users, multiple identities, PGPv2/v5 encryption, unlimited hierarchical folders, filters, a configurable GUI (based on [WikiPedia:Magic_User_Interface MUI]) and an ARexx interface and many other features which are common for Mail User Agents ([WikiPedia:Mail_User_Agent MUA]) today... [wiki:AboutYAM ››]

== Features ==
As the development of YAM goes back to 1995 it is probably one of the most feature-rich applications on the Amiga platform. Especially the MUI-based user interface allowed to implement functionality which are commonly used in graphical mail user client on other platforms today. Furthermore, the support and compliance to the most recent [WikiPedia:Request_for_Comments RFCs] is one of the keystrength of YAM... [wiki:Documentation/Features ››]
