-Overview
---------
-
-I have a Gmail account that I use for subscribing to and posting to mailing
-lists. When dealing with high-volume mailing lists, I am typically only
-interested in those threads that I participated in. This is a simple filter
-for starring and marking unread any messages belonging to such threads.
-
-This is accomplished by looking at the set of messages that were either sent
-from me or explicitly addressed to me. From this "root set" of messages, we
-can use the `Message-ID`, `References`, and `In-Reply-To` headers to determine
-threads, and thus the other messages that we care about.
-
-I have found this to be more accurate than my two original approaches. I used
-to have Gmail filters that starred/marked unread any messages containing my
-name anywhere in the message. This worked OK since my name is not too common,
-but it produced some false positives (not that bad, just unstar messages) and
-some false negatives (much harder to detect).
-
-A second approach is to tag all subjects with some signature string. This
-usually is fine, but it doesn't work when you did not start the thread (and
-thus determine the subject). You can try to change the subject line, but this
-is (1) poor netiquette, (2) unreliable because your reply may not register in
-other mail clients as being part of the same thread (and thus other
-participants may miss your reply), and (3) unreliable because replies might not
-directly referencing your post (either intentionally or unintentionally). It
-also fails when others change the subject. Finally, this approach is
-unsatisfactory because it pollutes subject lines, and it essentially replicates
-exactly what Message-ID was intended for.
-
-This script is not intended to be a replacement for the Gmail filters. I still
-keep those active so that I can get immediate first-pass filtering. I execute
-this script on a daily basis to perform second-pass filtering/unfiltering to
-catch those false negatives that may have been missed.
-
-Setup
------
-
-Requirements:
-
-- [argparse](http://argparse.python-hosting.com/) 0.8.0
-- [Python Commons](http://assorted.sf.net/python-commons/) 0.6
-
-Install the program using the standard `setup.py` program.
-
-Todo
-----
-
-- Currently, we assume that the server specification points to a mailbox
- containing all messages (both sent and received), and a message is determined
- to have been sent by you by looking at the From: header field. This works
- well with Gmail. An alternative strategy is to look through two folders, one
- that's the Inbox and one that's the Sent mailbox, and treat all messages in
- Sent as having been sent by you. This is presumably how most other IMAP
- servers work.
-
-- Implement incremental maintenance of local cache.
-
-- Accept custom operations for filtered/unfiltered messages
- (trashing/untrashing, labeling/unlabeling, etc.).
-
-- Refactor the message fetching/management part out into its own library.
