Once I start on it, it shouldn't take that long. But I haven't worked on FMail
for a couple of weeks now...

It should be, and maybe adapt some paths in the project file to your system...

I used the Windows codeblocks project files for the linux version to start
with, and the changes were minimal. So going from one linux distribution to the
 other should be easy...

I'm using 4.8.5, so I don't know how it will compile with this newer
compiler...

Not that I'm aware of. The version I'm using is a 64bit compile. And for the
functionality I'm using on my system it works flawless...

Obviously.
