Thank you for your contributions. This has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no activity for 180 days. If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity. Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:

  1. Search for maintainers and people that previously touched the related code and @ mention them in a comment.
  2. Ask on the NixOS Discourse. 3. Ask on the #nixos channel on irc.freenode.net.

It is important to me to have prospect-mail in nixos. I really hate having my email in a browser tab.

Thanks, -Bill

The upstream provides an AppImage, and as far as I remember Nix has support to ad-hoc appimages. At that time it was considered a viable approach instead of compiling a helluva dependency web of JS apps.

I actually for a way that works for me. My first plan was to just use MS Edge only for Outlook, and Firefox for everything else. But when you open outlook in Edge It offers to create an Outlook "app" I did that and it's working fine for me. It's a little annoying that when I click on links in email it opens then in Edge, but I don't mind copying the links and pasting them in firefox.

Thanks for the consideration, -Bill
