SMTP RFC: X-Notify & X-Notify-TTL ?

Does anybody know if there is an SMTP header that allows me to specify that a message is a notification-message, and one to set the expiration date / TTL?

A lot of emails I receive are notification messages (build failed, password reset etc). For these emails, it would be nice if the mailclient can see that they are notifications. The client could, for example, forward the mesasage to my IM. Or show a popup with the body. Also, it'd be easier to cleanup the email.

I suck at writing :P

My new favorite ruby IDE: RubyMine

I've been working with RubyMine since a couple of weeks now, and I have to say that I don't use NetBeans anymore. RubyMine is faster, leaner and does it's job a lot better. If you want more reasons, just ask :) Nobody reads this anyhow lol

Safari 4: Google clonium?

Both Google chrome(chromium) and safari use webkit, but why on earth did apple make an almost 1 on 1 copy of chrome?

Can't say I don't like it :D

Maybe they should work on making the inspect element thing more like firebug.

Google Reader revamp

I just noticed the UI of google reader got a relift.

The subscription folders are more clear and the whole site seems a bit faster

Wanted: Icons in the favorites list of the iPhone

The Phone-application of my iPhone has this nice favorites list. However it is text-only, and I have all these nice pictures of the people in my phone. So how can I tell the Phone application to show a grid of thumbnails of my contacts?.

sigh.

Phusion Passenger / mod_rails

I was running some mongrel_clusters until today. :) I had read about phusion a couple of times, but only now I took a few minutes to install it.

Some things went wrong at first (no rake in $PATH, missing some packages) but the installer notified me about that. Very nice.

Installing was a breeze, so now our rails apps run in apache with mod_rails (passenger). We still proxy and serve static content with nginx though.

Next step: Enterprise ruby, or some other VM

Hudson rocks

Last week I've implemented Hudson as our buildserver. Previously, we were using Luntbuild (and cruisecontrol).

The installation was a breeze. Installing it as a service was just a click away. We did have some problems with SSL when installing several plugins, so we donwloaded them from theinternet manually.

Hudson is a very neat tool, which integrates with http://www.redmine.org

thumbs up!
