This week I got a bunch of DBMail stuff done:

* Loadable database modules. Then Paul reorganized the files into a single, consistent dbmail/modules directory, and that inspired me to to authentication and sort modularization. Still a few tweaks left to do on auth, and the guts of sort are totally not figured out yet.
* Cleared the way for Sieve reintegration, handling username+mailbox@domain addressing, and better stderr debugging.
* Lots of updates on the DBMail Wiki so that people can find out what's cooking.

Been a while since I was last hacking actively on DBMail, but I'm back! Thanks much to a development bounty that's motivating me, and thanks to generally clearing my schedule of some useless junk . I also rather ought to use this blog more. The two things I've been working on now for DBMail are:

* Loadable modules for database drivers, because I'm sick of recompiling between MySQL and PostgreSQL.
* Sieve support and integration, because it's been on the back burner for almost two years, and a fellow on the DBMail list offered me $1000 to finish it!
