Hi All,

It has been a while for me to participate in my most favorite project.
Ilja (@IC&S) has conviced me that Python is actually cool and provides a very
fast way of developing stable and easy readable code.
I'm a 'features' guy so a language like Python helps me to add features fast.
In that perspective i've been working on glue between DBmail and Python.
I've created a module for Python that directly interfaces with the DBmail libraries. Only a couple functions are implemented, but enough to add some nice 'quick' features
to DBMail.

The following link is a script i just wrote this afternoon that adds a RSS interface to dbmail folders. The link below is a RSS interface to my dbmail folder (actually: INBOX/development/dbmail) in which all dbmail mailinglist messages are received.

or, if you're interested, my weblog folder:

It's very beta, and might brake down completely. I'm also working on a dbmail
filesystem interface and a python STMPserver that delivers to DBMail.
A few user management functions are also available to if anybody is willing to
create a nice and shiny GUI that talks XML-RPC we can built a secure
DBMAIL management GUI.

My dbmail -> python interface needs some polishing (and a lot of exceptions) before
i can put them online. I'll try to do some work on it the coming month.

Cheers,

Eelco
