Europe? The entire continent? The continent that includes large swaths of Russia?

I give up, I don't even know what you're trying to imply here. That somehow Texas (a state, in a country, in a continent) burns less coal than an entire continent? And...?

That's not how things work at all.

For context, I'm the author of Haraka, a popular open source SMTP server.

SMTP servers don't necessarily store anything. They have two responsibilities: Receiving and delivering email. What they do with the emails they receive is up to the configuration.

LMTP is for delivering to an IMAP (or JMAP) mailbox, generally. We also have a plugin for that. But it has certain flaws for exposing it to the internet (I just forget what they are right now).

It also misses one of the biggest fundamental problems with SMTP: Lack of per-recipient replies. Though you could potentially mandate a single recipient per request. We wrote a plugin to emulate that in Haraka, where you just 400 (temp fail) each subsequent recipient. The downside is some sources just plain don't retry.

Yeah my big thing was this needed to be local, because I want to test against localhost, so rather than a web app, a desktop app made sense. I'd like to build in some sort of team features to it, so that you can collaborate with other people.

This was only my second desktop app ever, my first being a DVD burning app for the Mac, so you can guess how long ago that was!

That's the idea, it's very much for non-developers.

It doesn't interact with your code at all (yet). The tests are in English, so mostly it's not designed for developers.

It's an interesting idea, but currently other apps are way better setup to scan code (like vscode and claude code). What I have done is ask claude to scan the codebase and generate a full series of English language tests in a markdown file. Would be good to ingest that, but for now I'm just using cut and paste.

I knew Aaron back in my IRC days. He hung out with us to talk about RDF for a good couple of years. We chatted almost every day.

He was lovely. And a genius. Maybe he changed, but he was a truly nice person.

I mean the parent said OpenAPI + JSON Schema, not JSON Schema alone. OpenAPI has a ton of generators that are tweakable in the extreme.

You just described Haraka.

I really hope you re-evaluate this comment. You italicized “giving”, I assume to imply something. This man was clearly a monster, and I don’t need a court to tell me that.

In Javascript you just need to wrap in `new RegExp(r1 + r2 + r3)`.
