Ryabitsev: lore+lei: part 1, getting started

[Kernel] Posted Nov 5, 2021 18:21 UTC (Fri) by corbet

Konstantin Ryabitsev introduces the "local email interface" (lei) functionality for the lore archive of kernel mailing lists.

Even though it started out as merely a list archival service, it quickly became obvious that lore could be used for a lot more. Many developers ended up using its search features to quickly locate emails of interest, which in turn raised a simple question — what if there was a way to “save a search” and have it deliver all new incoming mail matching certain parameters straight to the developers' inbox?

You can now do this with lei.
