I then usually just run the sieve-test binary (part of the Pigeonhole distribution) and send them the output. However, I was wondering - is there maybe a way for them to try it themselves? Like, maybe a tiny web server which just prints a form asking for a mail file and a sieve script, and then it runs sieve-script and prints the output of that? I wonder how other people do that.
you are not referring to syntax errors, do you?
Otherwise, this seems to be a nice idea to let users actually _test_ their scripts. However, I wonder how educated they are, in order to paste in a correct "mail file" incl. header and the like.
Better would be to let them submit a message from a folder, or all messages in a folder. I.e., "run Sieve on folder 'TestSieve'", then users can just drag messages there and test it (or, if I had that functionality, copy them).
Just a thought.
