what's the status on this?  it's been over a year now, and it would be nice to be able to move to the newer version of gmime.
Comment 3 Michael Gratton 2018-10-08 08:39:33 UTC 
@BrainBlasted has been working on it over on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/geary/issues/6, you could ask them how it's going and maybe co-ordinate if you're interested in helping out?
Comment 4 Daniel Kahn Gillmor 2019-11-11 17:31:04 UTC 
I'm hoping to track geary's GMime 3.0 transition specifically over on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/geary/issues/622 , as https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/geary/issues/6 looks like it got kind of bogged down in a much larger discussion.
Comment 5 Michael Gratton 2019-11-13 05:22:46 UTC 
Sounds good, let's do that over there.
