Celeste

Celeste is a mail reading and organizing program. The name "Celeste" is a reference to an earlier mail reader named Baba, which was written at Xerox PARC by Steve Putz and John Maloney.

Nowadays, Celeste is maintained by Giovanni Giorgi (me).

Latest Feature

A new revision is planned for the end of September 2006, and code name will be "Sonic". Sonic will include a smart mailing-list filter and a better "leave message on server" option. I implemented years ago an auto-filtering system in AppleScript. The filtering engine used the RFC2369 and some other tricks to detect yahoo mailing list. Sonic will have also an auto-filter for google mailing list too.

The leave message on server option is quite bad now. It creates a lot of duplicated messages.
The new implementation will avoid dowloading twice a message, using a mix of messageId and timestamp to detect duplicated messages.

I think ajax is a very new technology, but with too much hype on it. I think we’d try to do simple things with it, avoiding too much bloated interfaces.

Hi blog readers! Your trip master has just come back from a win trip done in the swap of the year. We have been in Modena in December and in Padova, this month. We have done one-day-trips, fast and furious as usual. I have done about 6 photos to Modena. I liked a bit more Padova, which needs at least two days to be seen. Padova has a lot of beautiful and nice churches to see. Consider only the Scrovengi’s Chapel, very well known.
