After about a year in the making for MimeKit and nearly 8 months for MailKit,
they've finally reached 1.0 status.
I started really working on MimeKit about a year ago wanting to give the .NET
community a top-notch MIME parser that could handle anything the real world could
throw at it. I wanted it to run on any platform that can run .NET (including mobile),
and do it with remarkable speed and grace. I wanted to make it such that re-serializing
the message would be a byte-for-byte copy of the original, so that no data would
ever be lost. This was also very important for my last goal, which was to support
S/MIME and PGP.
