Guide Review - Catfood Mail 2.0 - Remote Email Tool
If developers use their own tools, and especially if bugs prevent them from doing this productively, that's called "dogfood". "Catfood" is not much different, but Catfood Mail is not about bugs (there aren't many).
Catfood Mail is a bit of a geeky developer tool, though. With little comfort or ado, Catfood Mail connects to a POP server and displays header info for all mail in it. Based on this, you can preview and delete messages directly at the server.
Everything in Catfood Mail works directly. It's a bit as if you'd use your feet to brake not via a hydraulic system but by smacking them to the tires. But it works and no, Catfood Mail doesn't hurt.
