#12I have to be skeptical of any email client that's not integrated in to Emacs.
What about integrating emacs into aerc? You can set your EDITOR to emacs and replace aerc's default keybindings with a more emacs-inspired set. Send me your binds.conf and I'll add it to contrib in case anyone else wants an emacs-esque setup, too!

#13Love the idea, and I really will give this a go as a daily driver.
Just a small feedback: I had trouble with one of the requirements -> scdoc, didn't know what exactly that is (Googling didn't help), so might be worth to provide a direct link in the README.md to https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/scdoc/

#14How's the UTF-8 e-mail address support? As most clients suck so bad at that it would be awesome to have an alternative. How's the GPG and S/MIME support? We'd really need an e-mail client that has first class support of both. Current solutions I've tried are cumbersome at best. Having those two it'd actually be the best e-mail client for me.

hard pass on this as it encourages dark patterns.

As someone who doesn't want to completely throw away their workflow and muscle memory, I consider that a feature.

scdoc is probably available in your Linux distro's package manager, and aerc is designed to be packager-friendly - so eventually the idea is that most users will apt install aerc, rather than build it themselves.

Yeah, the problem is I am on OSX, and I actually had to compile scdoc myself without the -static flag (missing libraries).
Also, I had to run it as:
TERM=xterm-256color aerc

This issue comes from tcell, which has a baked-in terminfo database. I'm also not sure about the state of the terminfo database in general on OSX... in any case, I plan on improving terminfo support in tcell at some point.

Every interactive program evolves until it contains Emacs.
Even Emacs.
