[swift-evolution] Mailman?

[Liam Butler-Lawrence]

I’ve been tempted to make an app for this many times. If we only read email on the Mac I could handle it, but iOS doesn’t support rule-based mailboxes, and “smart” third-party apps like Spark just make everything more frustrating with this many messages.

I love the opportunity to participate in this process, but it would be a far better experience on a platform that actually was built for this kind of thing. (issue tracker, discussion board, etc.. Definitely +1 for not using a mailing list.


Addendum: if you have multiple email addresses like I do, Mail always seems to select the wrong one. If you don’t catch it your post goes into “pending review” forever. Happens almost every time for me.
