This is the main web site of the Yukatan webmail project. The goal of the project is to create an advanced webmail system, that uses a relational database backend to provide efficient search and classification capabilities.
The project is currently in pre-alpha state. The underlying data model has just reached 1.0 status, and a couple of utility tools are under active development.
