Subject: RE: ruby email client; why?

I would like an ruby email client to have the ruby interpreter in it.
With this I can for eg, sort my mails anyway I want, or parse mail
headers/subject/contents for highly fancy rules/filters (possibly using
regexp and of course ruby programming/triggers)... or maybe hook it on ms
exchange ;-)

.. or more like a mail client running on a ruby virtual machine??

k, I am not dreaming,... just crazy (and old :-).. but hey, w guys like
matz, guy, nobu, transami, dave, etc., nothing is impossible ;-)
