[edit] YAM (Yet Another Mailer)

Yet another mailer. Literally. No evidence of significance, user base or being the primary subject of multiple non-trivial coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject. Guy 11:41, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

• Ironic delete - fails to assert notability. MER-C 11:58, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: I would say "The 2.2 version was then also rated as the best e-mail client for Amiga computers back in 1998." is an assertion of notability. Cheers --Pak21 12:20, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
    • Rather a small pond, that. And by whom, anyway? Guy 12:40, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
      • That's why it isn't an assertion of notability, because I can say that without revealing that I made it up or any evidence whatsoever to back it up. If it were sourced, yes.MER-C 14:03, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
• this is a full-length magazine review in Svet Kompjutera by Nikola Smolenski. this is a personal review by Adam Hough. this is one paragraph in AMIGA-Magazin by Uwe Röhm. this is third-party documentation for YAM written by Jérome Chappuis in March 2002 and published in Obligement. this (see pages 24 and 25) is a medium-length magazine review in issue 3 of Total Amiga.

• Keep. The program has been mentioned in several Amiga magazines as the best Amiga mail client ever. JIP | Talk 16:46, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

 AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.

• Delete notability is asserted, but not evidenced. We need more precise references than "mentioned in several Amiga magazines", and I'd happily reconsider if the evidence is produced. --BrownHairedGirl ^{(talk) • (contribs)} 12:22, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
  • It has already been produced, and is right there immediately above. Uncle G 15:16, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
• Keep b/c i have heard of it. PFA 01:08, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
