Nylas-mail: No maintenance

[davidkoplik]

Update from the Maintainers

Nylas Mail was officially sunset in August and re-licensed under MIT. Nylas is no longer maintaining Nylas Mail. Instead, check out it's successors:

• Mailspring: One of the original developers is continuing Nylas Mail as Mailspring. Mailspring includes the same Pro features and a new C++ sync engine built on Mailcore2, which is faster, uses less RAM, and fixes many provider-related bugs.

• Nylas Mail Lives: A group of community members forked Nylas Mail to keep it alive, accept contributions from the community and publish new releases that fix bugs and add features.

Original Post

Since I've read that nobody is maintaining this project anymore, is someone going to take this project and keep it up to date? Should I still use this or move to a different email client?
