Elm is a text-based email client commonly found on Unix systems. It became popular as one of the first email clients to use a text user interface, and as a utility with freely-available source code. The name ''elm'' originated from the phrase ''ELectronic Mail''. Dave Taylor (currently with Intuitive Systems) developed elm while working for Hewlett-Packard.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.intuitive.com/bio.shtml )〕 Development later passed to a team of volunteers. The latest () public release was version 2.5.8 in August 2005. Other popular email readers which followed elm and took it as an inspiration include the Mutt and Pine programs. From about 1995 elm slipped in popularity and functionality, and it now sees relatively little use. Bill Pemberton of the University of Virginia currently maintains elm. A former Elm Coordinator was Sydney Weinstein from the Myxa Corporation. ==Release history== To get an idea of the period when elm was used and developed, this is a list of major.minor releases, included the last .patch level. * 1986-11-30 first release? * 1987-03-08 elm2 * 1989-04-12 elm2.2 * 1990-12-16 elm-2.3.0 * 1993-01-05 elm-2.4 * 1996-01-26 elm2.4.25 * 1999-03-24 elm2.5.0 * 2004-05-21 elm2.5.7 * 2005-08-18 elm2.5.8 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elm (email client)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
