Dumbest request?
Email piping chat system.

The chat system had to take replies from web and send them to an email, which the admin user can reply back via email and it publishes straight into the chat.

It was all fun and games until they wanted HTML based emails and content going back and forth, and attachments going both ways.

    Doing it once was bad enough.

    If your doing it in golang, good luck to you sir.

    @C0D4 Honestly, I have only recently read about piping and I would love most any practice in it. However email scares me so I shall safely mock you from a position of not having to implement it.

    My project is similar but not that bad. Basically monitoring a network monitor and sending emails based off of it via our ticketing system. Has issues with sending too many emails right now though.
