YAM is a free, MUI based e-mail package for the Amiga. This version is a
minor update to V2.2, fixing many bugs and adding a few new features.

Due to lack of time and motivation, Marcel Beck (original author of YAM)
gave up development. The sources have been released under the GNU General
Public License, and the project is now being maintained by the YAM Open
