Actually, come to think of it, feel free to respond if you have any opinions 
about my questions, it actually works better as a list post to be honest.

Um, Sorry, everyone...

I meant to send that last email to a person directly, i was responding to an 
old list post from the old list address. I clicked on a link that had their 
email on it and thought it was for their email. If it's possible to delete 
something from the archive, please wipe it. If it's a hassle, then don't 
bother, i don't really care, it just wasn't a list post.

Sorry!

[racket-users] Requesting an opinion on some email processing questions; related to languages and racket

2021-05-08 Thread Nathaniel W Griswold
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!

Nate
