Self-hosted email privacy with permanent remote content inlining, not expiring proxy caches.

Strengths

•Fifteen years of iteration on email privacy, not a weekend project chasing trends.
•Remote content inlining fetches and attaches images permanently instead of relying on expiring proxy caches.
•Handles PGP and S/MIME encryption, decryption, and signing in a single tool.

Weaknesses

•Limited to self-hosted email setups, excluding Gmail and Outlook users.
•Perl-based implementation may deter modern developers.

Sievers a Rust SIEVE filter editor

The repo delivers the two UX pieces you actually need: a visual rule builder plus a raw SIEVE editor and an IMAP connection dialog for direct uploads. It’s pragmatic — cross-compile notes, native build deps, and a tuned release profile (strip, LTO, size opt) show the author cared about distribution and binary size — but it’s solving a narrow, well-known problem rather than inventing one.
