Hello Professor! I like the Racket community, so i value the opinions of people in it. I am contacting you regarding an email from you from way back in 2011 that i found here: https://lists.racket-lang.org/users/archive/2011-June/045971.html and had a quick couple questions.
1) I was just wondering if you do in fact use Sieve, or if you use some other language, or if you have implemented anything on your own to do email processing, or if you have any favorite tools that you use for email processing. 2) Is it worthwhile to wrap sieve? What do you think in general for a situation like this? Cuz I was just setting up some stuff with sieve and was wishing for something a little bit nicer. I'm really only superficially acquainted with sieve so far, and i'm not really a snob with languages, but i do appreciate well thought out stuff and it maybe does seem to not really have the right combo of terse with good expressive power for my taste in my experience so far. Googling around at people's setups, it seems a lot of people just write sieve scripts directly. Maybe writing something that wrapped sieve is not worth the maintenance and upkeep and would just get dusty and out of sync with the RFCs. What is your opinion on a tool such as that in this kind of situation? I mean like a wrapper or binding (or whatever the proper term is) for a racket lib around the sieve syntax. Would that be useful or is it just too late at this point and everyone should just write sieve directly? Googling around it looks like most people just write sieve, to be honest. If you have no idea or don't feel like responding, no big deal, this is just a random request for opinion of someone who has probably thought about these questions more than me. Thanks!
