... what does that mean?

It sounds like you are saying "there are no standalone SMTP clients", after which we would all start listing software that speaks SMTP.




So point out the clients that speak ActivityPub?

There is a lot of software that speaks the ActivityPub server-server protocol, but most client apps use the Mastodon client API or custom protocols, not ActivityPub client-server.


SMTP is strictly a server-to-server protocol. POP3 and IMAP are the protocols for accessing mailboxes remotely.


You can send mail via smtp connection from client to server


Woopsie, totally forgot about that part. It seems like I got too used to webmails.
