Of course, what's open source for? 😆
Been running this new service for the past few days and it has been working well. It fetches a lot faster than the Gmail built-in POP fetcher, which is a nice upside. Feel free to give it a whirl.

I'm finishing up a program using that Gmail API to move messages from a POP3 server to Gmail. It'll be done before EOY 😅
Upside is it's faster than the arbitrary refresh time Gmail uses today.
Downside is that it required disabling Advanced Protection, even for the extremely limited OAuth scope.
I'm going to play with this Gmail API to see if I can salvage mailpopbox before January.
I built an entire mail server around the POP3 connection in Gmail (github.com/rsesek/mailp...), so this definitely bites me hard.
Last night I found developers.google.com/workspace/gm... which looks promising if it can accept a single `gmail.insert` scope. But OAuth in a daemon is still annoying.
Thanks, hadn't seen Jar's post. I appreciate his perspective and the choices he makes with MXRoute, but I do find some of the behaviors frustrating as a user (another is stripping the first-hop Received header on SMTP). I have a little more hope for ARC given that Gmail purports to observe it…
Not that I've found. And I'm not a huge fan of the IMAP approach because then my Gmail creds are on that server. I'm going to be switching to forwarding. Delivery might be more reliable with ARC signatures, I hope.
Gmail is dropping POP3 pulling in January. I've used this feature for years (and coincidentally MXRoute)... support.google.com/mail/answer/...
It's ridiculous to me how NYC has free street parking but not busses.
Woah, in macOS 15.4, two of my favorite syscalls are finally 'public' and documented!
"fileport_makeport(2) and fileport_makefd(2) are now APIs with manual pages"

Chromium has been using them for at least 6 yrs, when I implemented the IPC Channel using Mach msgs
Wrote a little thing on how I set up TLS certs using DNS-01 challenges for some Tailscale hosts that have no public Internet presence: robert.sesek.com/2025/2/tails...
Do you happen to know the make of those shoes?
Unreasonably excited for 1989 (Taylor’s Version) tomorrow.
I'm interested in Oppenheimer mostly for the filmmaking (70mm IMAX). But I'm seeing Barbie first.

That would be a hard pass and unsubscribe, thanks.
Thanks! What a terrible term…
The hardest problem in CS might actually be rendering Markdown beyond the strict CommonMark spec. Multitudes of inter-inoperable options and syntax that is all un(der)-specified.
If we tweet and toot elsewhere, what do we do here?
