I didn't know at first and it was hell as when I first delved into this I thought it would be a simple task as it would be some agreed upon standard like JSON behind the scenes, but from what I understood emails were created a long tim

No, I wrote it in PHP and I didn't want to get an angry mob after me. I've been thinking about open sourcing it if anyone would want it, but right now the site has way too little attention for it to get any traction. It's a
