I have been using mailsync since 1999. There is, no my knowledge, no other software on the planet that does what it does over as broad a range of protocols. The fact that it has seen no commits in a long time does not necessarily mean it is abandoned, and may simply be evidence of its stability (what was it, 30 years between releases of gnu time?). The build failure attached above looks like something is wrong with one of mailsync's dependencies - the failure occurs when the build attempts to compile a test binary against that dependency before it has ever touched its own code. Possibly the ebuild could be improved to avoid that condition, though the report doesn't contain enough info to tell what the problem actually is. It builds fine for me, for what that's worth. Is there an alternative to removing it from portage? I do maintain a portage overlay, and though I'm hardly a portage expert, I'd be willing to volunteer to maintain this ebuild if that's what it takes.
What it takes is for someone to take initiative, become its (proxied) maintainer and bump it to EAPI 7. Trying to reproduce this and fix it would be a nice thing too (i.e. is it USE flags on c-client?).

I think the problem should be fixed in the new 5.3.1 release. Mailsync autotools machinery does not bother anymore to check for transient libraries. It defers that to c-client. So the problem you are seeing should be gone. However - mailsync has to dynamicall link to c-client, which I think it does in Gentoo, but I'm not sure, not being a Gentoo user. Cheers to everybody and thanks for caring about this universe!
