As I understand things, there is no longer anything preventing this
from being distributed as the developer intended (ie, with TLS/SSL
support). What's the hold-up? How can the community help?

For some reason I'm not getting email for this bug. Perhaps removing
the 'wontfix' tag will help...
Oh, and sorry LIU Qi, I should have seen your name at the top of the bug page.

Any headway here? Or does nobody use mail-notification anymore? If so,
maybe we should get this proposed for removal from the next debian
release?

Sorry for spamming the bug report with a massive patch. Even sorrier for
sending the wrong one! This patch used the magic "-N" flag too and
actually contains the code that's required...

As M. Braun said in his previous message (in 2009), there is in fact a
patch to enable gnutls support (which he wrote!).
I've extracted the code from the massive zip file that's linked at the
Ubuntu bug report and have made the required changes to the debian
control file to use it.
I *think* this
Dear package maintainer,
please find patches to make mail notification work with gnutls
attached to the ubuntu bug report. They apply to the vanilla
mail notification 5.4 and introduce only gnutls as a new build
and runtime dependeny (no diff for control file included).
Sincerely

Followup-For: Bug #286672
It seems that different maintainers interpret this issue differently.
The FAQ of the openssl package follows the official interpretation of
upstream openssl. Several other packages link against libssl although
they are
As a follow up on this, i'm currently looking into patching
mail-notification to use GnuTLS instead of OpenSSL.
Now, please don't read this as a promise that SSL/TLS support will be
back in mail-notification soon.
If you're willing to help on this front, you're very much welcome.
You can help by:
Charles, you have to take it up with upstream. Debian simply does not
have permission to distribute binaries of mail-notification compiled
with OpenSSL support.
Another alternative would be to port mail-notification to use the Gnu
TLS library... :)

If there is any way to provide SSL support for this package, I would be very grateful. I understand there may be some licensing issues but I think upstream should reconsider. Not having SSL support renders this application useless for me.
Thank you.
Since the author explicitly expressed that the program can be
distributed with dynamically linked OpenSSL. Why not just use the email
from the author as a permission statement and include it in the
documentation?
