Heute oder morgen gibt es eine Aktualisierung meiner Inbox-Regeln. Dabei ist z.B. ein Fix für Amazon Bestellbestätigungen - die enthalten nun den Artikelnamen…

Es kann mir keiner erzählen, dass das noch normal ist - wie soll das bitte ein normaler Mensch filtern können? Die werden mit ihren 1GB-Freemail Postfächern einfach zugeballert, bis die Mailbox voll ist.

Meine Nerven danken ganz hart @mailbox_org für die Bereitstellung von Sieve!

TL:DR; can you recommend an email provider that supports sieve and works for email based development and doesn't block/reject any valid emails?

Okay. I've been doing email based development for over 25y now using the amazing, multiple times award winning internetprovider #xs4all.

Sadly, xs4all was killed by the Dutch telecom giant #KPN. Email-wise this means that #sieve support was dropped and a helpdesk is virtually non-existing.

So I switched to @freedominternet but they don't have the skills to do email and outsourced it to #soverin. They do support sieve (sort of via a clumsy web interface), but they keep rejecting valid emails (some four a day) sent to development lists. The helpdesk takes weeks to respond with a useless answer. This is terrible.

Self-hosting (as we did in the old days) might be an option but I'm not up to date with what is needed. A #Guix recipe for an email server setup with dovecot and sieve would be amazing here (but knowledge on how to create that seems hard to get <lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/>)

Anyway until we have that, any amazing email provider can you recommend?

Regarding PyCharm picking an incorrect pre-existing virtualenv for a project - do you have your venvs inside the project directory, or tucked away somewhere?

I use venvs inside the project directory, and PyCharm pretty much always gets them right. When a project doesn't have one, it even offers to create one based on the settings from pyproject.toml when the project is first opened.

Overall I agree; PyCharm isn't perfect, but it's fairly nice to use, and its low memory usage in current versions is great. A few years back it leaked like a sieve, requiring restarts every day.

I've been running my own #email servers for over two decades now, with spurts of enthusiasm and improvement. The last project has been to run the various software parts in immutable containers on #Kubernetes, and I'm quite happy with the result. I do see a decline in requests for hosted accounts on personal domains, as friends and family seem to settle with accounts on major providers like Gmail. I'm not going to throw in the towel though. Self hosted for the win!

For the curious, my stack is #Postfix, #Rspamd, #Dovecot and #Roundcube for those who prefer webmail over a native client like #Thunderbird or #K9mail. #Sieve for automatically organizing mail in the proper folders. Used to run #PostfixAdmin, but was unhappy with it, so I wrote my own API in Go to edit accounts, mailboxes and aliases. Never got around to write a frontend, but it was a Swagger interface, so.. 😜
