From 4585ffb6dc900b533eaaea15cb650bc50de5b723 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xianwen Chen Date: Mon, 10 May 2021 14:44:27 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] README.md: Previously, the link to releases was pointing to offlineimap. I now point the link to the offlineimap3's releases. I added a note explaining how one may install imaplib2 from git repository. This is related to issue #69. --- README.md | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index de5efe0..f20b8cc 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -59,7 +59,7 @@ GNU General Public License v2. ## Downloads You should first check if your distribution already packages OfflineIMAP for you. -Downloads releases as [tarball or zipball](https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap/tags). +Downloads releases as [tarball or zipball](https://github.com/OfflineIMAP/offlineimap3/tags).
