No worries, then. You like me enjoy stirring up to learn. As I suggested, I slip everything up into different applications. I use mutt-kz and not much with isync to sync maildir, view it mutt, and do label/filtering like Gmail locally

Well, certainly he would agree. MS devs who needed to patch the Linux kernel could not even get Outlook to do git-patch properly, as the old Linus anecdote went. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9814276/git-patch

Performance doing what? Email has several operations and none of these clients are performant at scale. You know why mutt can be for me? I have a second program (isync/mbsync) sync the maildirs, a third to index it, and mutt is just fo

I am glad you made this point; I forgot to.

Again, shoving everything into one file is mbox, which is a recognized file format (if not database), and it does not help things that much. I have wondered the Sqlite thing myself beyond my one criticism. If anything, you would love K9 Mai

As far as I can tell from playing with many of them: - Almost all (open source and proprietary) prefer mbox-style - If not mbox, then it is monolithic file per folder, very few if any store email per file like maildir, despite it having man

You do this on your time, so I expect nothing. Thanks for letting me know. I have to avoid people like you. I have tons of HW and I can never finish it because I drown in all the interesting system design and articles here. GO AWAY! Haha.

I will not beat a dead horse with my "mutt is superior because they know the best they cannot do is suck without confessing it" trope, but almost all email clients lack is Maildir. Even if you are not a technical user, you should

My personal situation is complicated, but I think children make specific kinds of people happy. I have a child, and I really enjoy learning. And we here at HN love the Feynman style "you want to learn, then be able to teach" para

As a FLOSS supporter, I have been perturbed they charge money and let Thunderbird languish, just like I have been as an individual user all these years. Problem is I don't make a profit off it. Do they give back? I would like to stand

Yes. I do for Google Apps now for years. Why I love it, server-side IMAP search, which means you use server-side search not the Gmail way, but as part of the IMAP protocol. Is it as fast and perfect? No. But I do not have to store so much

by 616c 10y ago
It's all fun and games until you mirror the IMAP folder structure (what you sync with server) with local folders, break your Mac, and then import them into a new Mac and have to keep it all straight. Or you have to make a PST export on

I have wanted to try this for so long. Doing my own short articles is one thing, but to see something as complex as 2D/3D voxel libraries in Clj/Cljs is very inspiring. My only concern for such things is what to do with non-org l

Is anyone playing with this? I read whenever people post this stuff here, and this book is very interesting and I will peruse despite being way above my understanding and I am curious who is doing something crazy with NetBSD which I find fa

Oh, shoot. I even searched but not far back enough, nevermind. I found tangential comments in threads, but I had not seen direct mention of Ganeti in a while. I was very intrigued when I saw docs for parts Python, parts Haskell.

If people like this, they will probably find the Apache Guacamole project interesting. I was surprised to here it is a superset of this (RDP/VNC/SSH bastion box) but also handles key auth, perhaps insecurely architecturally, even

Well, that's your opinion. Support that garbage like I do at work, and your opinion will change. Again, popular does not mean good to me. That is the point. I have seen Outlook peg processors and waste disk IO with all those features

Yeah I clearly saw it a long time ago. As I said, stumbled upon your blog because of Chicken Lisp musings (dare I say chicken scratch)? Thanks for that, all very interesting.

Now, it ain't tiling, but I once worked (not as the first guy, but took it over as a major project and the hell out of it) was one of the ports of Opebox-ish Windows managers (to be more accurate, really an Explorer replacement shell,

Another thought: when people complain about the state of Linux email clients, what is so good about the Windows alternatives? Office productivity suites, I get it. But email clients all suck. Mutt's mantra is so true, at least they&

God where won't this run and super fast? When discussing benchmarks, main dev Mike Pall is willing if people pay him to port to PPC for Xbox360 and PS3 and what not. Haha. Who knows what we can do with this guy's creative juices

Oh really? I have access to Safari. Thanks. Still though, I think later this week I will buy a copy. I like your blog too, and after years of intro level courses of different types (currently watched my eyes water over when redoing insert

I had the same reaction, but largely because I2P is under the radar; Tor gets a lot more attention, in both the good ways and bad.

I was under the impression out proxies are a thing, and thereby not so different from exit nodes; they are the big weakness. https://www.reddit.com/r/i2p/comments/46yan0/are_i2p_outprox... (Again, I am h
