Sorry I did not get back to you earlier. I'd missed your post due to family obligations and
was wondering if updating this was worthwhile.
I just checked and the ports tree is locked for 7.2 - I will update over the weekend.

Essentially, you can substitute your favorite email client for sylpheed.
For some text based email clients, you may need to create a desktop entry. Example desktop entries
are shown in the 3rd and 4th posts.
If you look at the PLIST for deadbeef, it has a
Code:
share/applications/deadbeef.desktop
entry:
https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/c...ype=text/plain
As fas a Giimmix, it appears to have been dropped. If you use Deadbeef, it is a stand alone audioplayer - does not need music
player daemon (mpd).
OpenBSD MPD clients that are available are
  1. audio/gmpc
  2. audio/ncmpc
  3. audio/ncmpcpp
  4. audio/ario
  5. audio/pms
  6. audio/sonata
  7. audio/ympd

I've been using ncmpc and pms looks interesting. gmpc is a GTK2 Gnome client with geolocation dependencies - its larger but would drop in as a gimmix replacement. Ario should also drop in but it is an even larger client. Lighter, terminal based, ncurses based, ncmpc, ncmpcpp will need launch scripts and manual menu entries. The project now provides the launch scripts and desktop entries for ncmcp. In ncmpc the F keys will navigate; F1 for Help will list the basic navigation commands and more.
