sk_filter (dialup-er's best friend)


to my personal website


Introduction:

This is sk_filter. It can filter mail based on its size. This makes it great for people using dial-up connections, that do not want to receive mail that is bigger than, say 300KB (default setting), to cut down connection costs.

Latest version: 0.2.1

Features:

  • it can delete mail if it is bigger than a given size
  • it can delete mail if it's size is in a given size range (between and including, minimum and maximum allowed messages size)
  • it can filter email messages that have certain size and only those

To do:

  • works only with POP3 servers; so maybe add IMAP support (if you want it, please say that you do by writing to me via e-mail)
  • implement logging

Requirements:

sk_filter was written in Python and makes full use of some modules that are bundled only with versions 2.3.x
