On the tiny, personal, end of things, I’m classifying all my incoming email into folders (‘Notification’, ‘Advertising’, ‘Bills’, ‘Personal’, ‘Mailing List’, etc).

Jev makes it easy and cheap to do if you have an email host that provides a way to write arbitrary filter hooks. It’s fast enough that the filter has never timed out despite the network call, and it’s _way_ more accurate/reliable than my previous rules-based system.

I’ve been thinking of using an LLM to do this for a while, but it felt like that would be too complex and perhaps dangerous. With Jev I don’t need to worry about code complexity, prompt injection - or cost, really!.
