Introduction

This project was made in my computer science class in secondary school - myself and a few friends were given the time to just make random things, so this appeared. It's a dodgy and insecure, but operational, e-mailing/messaging system written in Python. The credentials are stored in a CSV file (unencrypted; encryption wasn't necessary for a little project at secondary school for chatting to my friends), as are messages. It has an auto-updater feature and a directory for searching users, in addition to the core functionality of sending and receiving messages.

It's frankly awful programming and I am not proud of it (to catch any errors I hadn't thought of, I put all the code in a try-catch statement in a while loop), but it worked :-) It was a fun project to knock together over a few lessons.

To do

Absolutely nothing. I'm not resurrecting the project, despite all its flaws - it's just here for posterity. That being said, we made a similar project in sixth form called BistoComm over a couple of lessons while we were learning about networking, and it is far, far better.
