Q: Sending email will surely need an account or choose one from a list, but sending an SMS message will not need this. Is the Account in application menu just for the email, and the opening dialog would be a list? (Eg. email account list) Do we need an interface for user to configure his/her email account?
User:Sean A: Only email and IM will need to configure accounts.
Same question for opening dialog, if I want to insert a file or picture into a message (Eg. send an MMS message), what will happen, should we call the file browser?
User:Sean This will call the File Open Dialog
Another question, is the MMS feature in libgsmd already already support?
User:Sean We don't have any plans for MMS support. It's just too expensive a service for the end user at this point.
Use case: I want to send an email. What email api should I call? In PIM_Storage page, you have mentioned the Embedded EDS, shall we call the camel API in EDS?
User:Mickey libcamel and libnttp from EDS are huge and overcomplicated for what our use cases are -- this is why I have them currently disabled in our build of Embedded EDS. I guess we better grab a small libsmtp for sending mail.
