Re: "Hol up a second. Yall mean to tell me that somebody's..."
@Supernova Ok thanks, I will look into that as well. The problem could be the path that it's trying to save the gembox in, which is default to "~/.gembox".
I think the "~" was having a problem because I had to disable CGO as CGO links with a version of Glibc that not all platforms have, apparently, and so I think the native golang implementations of file opening might not handle "~" properly on linux, idk. It's a simple fix by just doing the same thing that I do with Windows, which is to replace "~" with the user's home directory, although I should do testing to see if the golang implementation actually gets the user's home directory correctly, lol.

@Supernova I have released a new version, version 0.4.6, with some bug fixes: https://gitlab.com/clseibold/misfinmail/-/releases/0.4.6
I've also tested it this time on my WSL instance, so hopefully the fetching, and everything else, will work this time.
Hol up a second. Yall mean to tell me that somebody's cooking up an actual mail protocol inside geminispace? BRUH. Now I wanna try actually messing with implementing a protocol spec from the ground up for once, instead of watching and thinking "Wow that would be cool." Because email is a pain. Port 25 is a gateway to sadness as a sysadmin. This, however, seems simple and clean enough to actually be fun to handle and use, AND just might work for this environment. Nice!
